I was excited about this new feature, but…
Normaly, I’ve always worked in 640 X 480 and allowed our AVID or Velocity to just auto scale the images upon importing up to 720 X 486. I’ve been using my own template with title and image safe for years. Seeing it integrated was a nice touch. My recomendation maybe worked=) Anyways, you could never really work in 720 X 486 in PS, because when shown on a monitor, it would appear smooshed. Common knowledge. The thing is, working in the "new" 720 X 486 template with non-square pixels distorts & jaggies up the image in PS and frankly isn’t a good work a round to me. Why create in PS when the image isn’t perfect? It isn’t any better than just working in 640 X 480 and leting an AVID or any editing system scale it for you. To the naked eye, you can’t tell the difference at all. Upon looking at 2 test images using both techniques, they look completely identical.
To any other video pros out there. How do you work? Have you been using the same techniques? Are the new non-square pixels helpfull at all? For me, I just don’t see the point. What do you think?
