: Maybe you only see it on those wider pictures. A good test is to create a circle and see if it's still a circle in FCP. Likely, it will become an oval. I'm not sure if this is your problem but there are square and non-square pixels. Nothing is broke; it's just a format adjustment you have to make. You have to rescale the images in Photoshop before bringing them into FCP and using them with an NTSC or other standard. There is information on this on pages 296 and 297 of the FCP version 2 manual. It's also in other places. I think there was a book by Lisa Bremer on FCP that spoke on the subject a year or two ago. : Larry : : : : I have been scanning pictures in Final Cut Pro from Photoshop and I have just noticed for the first time some bending of the picture when it is played in the timeline of FCP. Has this happened before to anyone else? Is this from an incorrect change in pizel size from scan to TV? Now it only happens on pictures that are wider. Ones that fill up more of the screen. Interested in opinions. Thanks : : Rob The thing is, is that I have the FCP 2.o manual and have change the settings from square to non square pixels but still get the same problem for only the pictures that are wider. So far my solution has been to increase the size in FCP of the picture so that the bent areas are not seen. The rest of the picture is not affected. It is just the outer left/right edges that distort even when I crop it it happens...oh well keep trying..and thanks all for the help... Rob
