▶Slow Constant Zoom Impossible - Keyframes◀

Hey guys and gals.

I have an image which I want to key frame with scale.

Start is at 100% scale and the End is at 4% scale.

It doesn't matter if the sequence is 30 seconds, 1 min or 10 mins the speed of the zoom isn't consistent which is what you'd expect when you have only two keyframes! The zoom will be nice a slow for the first 80% of the clip then the last 20% it speeds up dramatically to get to the 4%.

No other settings are on the clip.

I just want it to be a constant speed from start to finish.

Any help appreciated : )

    I am having the same issue. I simply want to zoom out of a photo in premiere but as the orignal poster described the zoom out speed will be constant for about the first 80%, then it abruplty speeds up towards the end. I have made sure both keyframes are set to Linear. This is so furstrating. Any help will be appreciated.

    Both temporal and spacial need to be Linear.

    I know this is from a long time ago but I have the same problem and I did what the answer told me to do, right click the keyframes and put them on linear but it still speeds up and nothing has changed. There is not a single other forum about this so could you please help?

    I'm having a similar problem.  My two keyframes are in linear, and at the beginning of the shot the zoom speed seems consistant, but then slows to a crawl for the last quarter of the shot or so.  I am not using ease in or ease out, but it's still having this issue. Any help would be much appreciated!

    Both temporal and spacial set to linear?

    Right-click actual keyframes (right side of your screen shot) and choose Linear rather than Bezier, which is a curve, for Spatial and Temporal Interpolation. See if that helps

    Thanks
