My apologies for not making this clearer - the source footage is
coming in from:
1) a digital camera, (320x240 @ 15fps)
2) a Nokia 6230, (???x??? @ ??fps)
3) little Macromedia Flash movies made at 400x300, 15fps
So as you can see I don't want any of this scaled up to 720x576!! I'd
much rather work with the footage at 400x300 rather than scale up and
then scale back down (as would be the case using iMovie).
If Adobe Premiere is no longer an option I have been hanging out to
find a reason to get the Producers Pack (Final Cut Pro HD, Motion,
DVD Studio Pro) but that'd also mean getting a new G5!
Thanks for the advice,
Darren.

Greetings,
Have been playing around with iMovie but it seems to lock me into a
default PAL resolution of 720x576 when I really just want to
create/edit a movie that is only 400x300 pixels in size. (i.e. if I
import a 400x300 clip into iMovie it converts it to a 720x576 DV
file which is not what I want)
I am assuming you are referencing DV tape captured by iMovie, not
captured video from the web.
Create the movie in it's PAL state, then when you are happy with
what you have you can export it creating the relevant mpeg or file
format you are after including size, of course options in FCP will
surpass those offered in iMovie. If it is the web you are
specifically aiming at I would suggest looking into Flash, but still
edit and capture your imagery via FCP preferably, but iMovie will
suffice.
But, their are many and varied options within scenarios etc. etc...
Will Final Cut Pro enable me to work at smaller sizes? (ie to
produce movies for the web etc)
Cheers,
Darren.
HTH
Cheer!
