Hi Robin, I finally had a chance to try your suggestion. Rotating the slide did not have any effect on the sparkle effect. It seems to happen most in high-contrast, detailed areas. For example, one photo was of a man speaking at a podium, and there was a floral wreath on the front of the podium. The wreath was all glittery, with that sparkle effect. If I did not zoom, it didn't do it. It only happens when I apply any motion to the photo.
Unfortunately, I don't have After Effects. I ended up doing the bulk of the whole show in Photodex Producer. Actually, for this type of show, it's way easier to work with than Premiere, and you can have a show finished in about a tenth of the time. Thanks for your info, Jean ----- Original Message ----- From: robinleeedwards To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, August 19, 2007 10:19 AM Subject: [AP] Re: artifacts in stills Hi Jean: I'm going to guess that this "sparkle" comes off worst when you have repeating lines (buildings, blinds, picket fences). If so, consider rotating the photo about 5 degrees to see if if still happens. That isn't a permanent fix but will uncover the underlying problem. Hope this points you in the right direction, also maybe experiment with another Adobe product to zoom your photos (After-Effects).

It is most pronounced if I zoom or pan. The photos are taken with my Nikon D70, and are 3008 x 2000 pixels. If I reduce the size of the photos down to a smaller resolution, it helps reduce the sparkly effect, but then I'm not left with much to be able to zoom or pan. Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong? If I open the full res photos in Proshow Producer and make a slideshow there, that sparkly effect does not happen, and the photos look great. It's only in Premiere Pro 1.5 that I have the problem. > > Thanks. > > Jean > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
