Hi all,

I really need you help.

I have a lot of video footage that I want to convert to still images. I have both iMovie and FCP and the process of making the still frames are quite easy, but which deliver best result in terms of quality? Is there any other program that makes it better?

I am also wondering if there are any tips or tutorials on how to edit these still frames in Photoshop.

Finally if I know in ahead that I will use frames from my videos for still images, what should I bear in mind in terms of camera settings, light and MiniDV cassettes? I shooot on Canon XM2.

Thanx for help
Sammet

Thanks for answer Tom.

YES, I have DV material and YES I had set the correct settings to PAL.

Now I am only working with one video file for about 30 sec!

It stills shows me the red rendering warning on the Time line and I am unable to see anything in the canvas.

The next step to take???

Thanks again

Sammet
