Hi team

1. I have a high resolution picture in Lightroom 3

2. I export it to jpg (7MB) or tiff (100MB)

3. From Premiere Pro CS5.5 I import it

4. I then insert it into the Sequence

5. Issue: after inserting it is zoomed in. At this point the resolution is still good but I can't work with it zoomed it.

6. I right click on the clip and select Scale to Frame Size. This fixes the zooming bit but the resulting picture is pixelated and is low quality.

It's driving me bananas. I'd appreciate anyone's expert help.

Haven't ever used CS5.5 ... I started with CS6, years ago.

Does CS5.5 have "set to frame-size" ... which would be the appropriate option in CS6/on?

Also, in general I export stills from LIghtroom at a multiple of the frame-size of the sequence ... normally double, maximum 3x the width/height pixels. Otherwise PrPro can get cranky.
