60i Looks Blurry

Forum,
I've recently captured 60i, 1/2000th shudder speed from my Canon HV30. I used these settings because I taped a football game and I wanted to minimize motion blur.
I used easy set up:
HDV
1080i60
29.97 fps
It doesn't look blurry in my viewer, but when I switch to full screen mode - forget it.
Can anybody help me to get rid of this motion blur?
Thanks,
Trey
P.S I'm new to 60i; I usually shoot either 24p or 30p.

treyvon,
You've been here a while now and no doubt have read the countless threads and posts based around this issue that we're eluding to here; you cannot judge the quality of your video on anything but external monitoring.
As G has suggested, you must use an hd monitor or at the very least an hdtv to judge but in your case, you've hit that iMac brick wall of NO EXPANSION capability. If you're iMac has a dvi output you could use an MXO with a computer display and some folks will recommend that but I can't.
At the very least, playback your video from your Canon camera onto your hdtv and then judge sharpness. If it's blurry there, then you need to fire your camera operator and reshoot.

  • My images look blurry when I export or publish my site from Muse. Why and how do I fix it?

    My images look blurry, jagged, pixelated and low quality when I publish or export my site from Muse. Is there any way to avoid or fix this problem?

    The primary cause of blurring images is the less than Photoshop-quality image downsampling algorithm currently used in Muse (that was compounded in early betas due to a bug in the JPEG compression library we were using at that time). Due to work we've done for Beta 7 to improve image encoding performance we now have the infrastructure in place to enable us to take a much better image resampler/resizer (after Beta 7), so this source of blurring will be addressed.
    The other source of blurring is unique to opaque images containing line art or otherwise containing hard edges and large areas of solid color. When an image is opaque Muse will encode it as JPEG (if it's altered in Muse is a way that requires re-encoding). For line art this will introduce JPEG compression artifacts that can be noticeable depending on your eye and the specific image involved.
    There are (at least) to ways to avoid these JPEG compression artifacts:
    Resize your image before placing and avoid applying any effects (rounded corners, drop shadow, etc.) or doing any cropping or resizing in Muse. If the image is unaltered your original JPEG, PNG or GIF will be passed through unaltered.*
    Put at least one pixel of transparency in your original image. (It could be a single 99% opaque pixel.) This will force Muse to encode as PNG. PNG compression is lossless and thus doesn't introduce any compression artifacts. However, an average PNG can be 5 times the size of a JPEG for the same image, so there is an impact to webpage download performance.
    *For PSD files Muse has to encode the original PSD data into some web-friendly image format. If an image is resized in Photoshop and placed Muse won't resize/resample the image data, but it will encode it as JPEG or PNG depending on whether it contains transparency.

  • Why do my photos get blurry when they are enlarged to full screen from the disc I burn, or played on the t.v.?  I set the burn on the highest quality.  The photos don't look blurry when enlarged from iphoto on the computer.

    Why do my photos that are transferred from iphoto to idvd, and then burned on DVD, look blurry when the idvd is shown full screen on computer or on t.v.  They don't look blurry when I enlarge the iphoto pics on the computer.  I used the 'prof. quality" encoding setting before burning, and before putting photos on idvd.

    Hi
    DVD is as standard - only interlaced SD-Video (as on old CRT-TVs) and can never be any better than this.
    This is less than a quarter of Your Mac screen resolution.
    That's one part of Why You can see High res. on Your Mac - and not on DVD.
    Next part is what program is used to make the SlideShow.
    If You use iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - to make it - it too degrades the final result as non of them can deliver interlaced SD-Video to iDVD but only half (every second line in the picture)
    I use
    • iMovie HD6 or
    • FinalCut (any version) or
    • FotoMagico™
    As they all delivers 100% of what iDVD or Toast™ or DVD Studio Pro or Whatever needs.

  • Multiple Rotate3d filters makes everything looks blurry

    Hi I have a Flex 4 project that uses two rotate filters.
    Once it to rotate the main container and the other to rotate an internal element.
    The issue is that when applied simultaneously text, and everything looks blurry.
    If I add a delay time to one of the effects so they are not applied simultaneously then the blurry effect seems to be fixed.
    The thing is that I would like not to be aware if there is a rotation effect in a parent container or something like that, just want to apply the effect and that it work as intended.
    Any suggestion or good practice to slove this?
    Thanks in advanced

  • Pages documents look blurry after updating to iOS 8.3

    I use the iWorks apps a lot, after updating tonight to iOS 8.3 I discovered that the display of all the documents from Pages looks blurry, and when I open a document it looks still blurry, is there a way to fix it?, Am I the only one having this trouble?

    Just got off the phone with Apple Tech Support, including a Pages specialist. No solutions so far but there have been other complaints. The initial technician had to look up under iWorks rather than Pages. The Pages specialist is filing a report but suggested it would speed things along to go to apple.com/feedback, scroll down to iOS Apps, select Pages, and file a bug report online, which I just did. The more of us willing to file an online bug report the faster the fix. Be sure to include the version number of Pages (Settings/Pages). I checked other native iOS apps (Safari, Mail, Notes, Calender, Contacts) and they are all fine. I updated my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 to iOS 8.3 and Pages text is blurry. I did not update my iPhone 5c. It is still running iOS 8.2 and Pages text is perfect. All are running the latest version of Pages (2.5.2). So the problem is definitely with the 8.3 update.

  • In the Book creation screen, pictures look blurry

    Hello,
    I'm creating a new book. As I'm creating, I'm dropping in high-resolution pictures taken with a DSLR into the album. The issue I'm having is that the pictures look blurry. The high resolution seems to be gone. Is this behavior normal? Will the pictures turn out fine once it is printed? Please let me know. Thanks.

    select a photo and look at the information pane in the lower left hand corner of the iPhoto window (if it is not there click the blue "i" icon to display it) and see what the resolution of the photo is
    I do not see blurry photos when I am building a book
    The printed version will use the full resolution of the photos
    Before you send to print you should preview the book by right clicking (control click) just outside the book and selecting preview

  • Imported graphics look blurry in playback

    This just started creating headaches for me. I have high-resolution graphics (1920x1080 HD resolution) that I have imported into Final Cut Pro X and they look fine in preview mode. However when I go to play it back after render they look blurry. The frame rate info says 60fps -- is this the problem? Is there a way to force it to have a frame rate of 29.97fps? I have created several Final Cut projects in the past that have incorporated similar graphics and have never had this issue.
    Any clues on how to fix this problem? Thanks.

    OK I feel stupid. Don't know how that pref setting got changed, must have happened in one of the recent updates. Thanks.

  • Borders in Pages for Mac look blurry when I export to pdf

    Borders in Pages for Mac look blurry when I export to pdf. How can I make a pdf or JPEG retain the sharp edges and smooth shadows when I export?

    The ColorSync filters control the conversion between color spaces of files on the Mac and are used when you export or print to pdf.
    The ColorSync Utility is inside the Utilities folder inside the Applications folder.
    see Alternate ColorSync PDF filters.

  • In v.4 fonts look blurry. Can you solve this shortcoming ?

    Fonts look blurry in the overall menu in this new version of browser (v.4). I tried all the options that you specified with the ClearType an so on... It seems that the problem is not from Windows 7 because the old version looks ok. Can you solve this shortcoming ?
    Until you resolve it I'll stay with the previous version (3.6.16) which it looks really good.

    Yea, when I actually install my applications and launch them from GNOME Shell's menu or launcher the fonts look as blurry as they do when I launch them from Anjuta. Other applications look fine and with the workarounds I described above, my own applications display nicely too when launched from either GNOME Shell or Anjuta.

  • Why do some pages look blurry?

    I have noticed that some websites look blurry and also when I am trying to read an assignment in word it looks almost pixelated. What can I do to make it look clearer?

    Do they still look blurry on the "best" setting for Retina?
    The problem I see is, there are many applications around that were created a decade ago, and the developers have moved on. These are still valuable applications for many people. Are they just always going to look crappy on the Retina MacBook? That sounds pretty undesirable.
    The difference with the iPhone is, the Retina was an upgrade, but didn't make existing applications look worse.

  • Imported PDFs look blurry

    Hi All,
    I'm using Keynote 09 and when importing PDFs images they all look blurry, but the text and lines in the figure look OK. One way to avoid this problem is to convert the figures to PNGs... but then that does not solve the issue and it involves more steps. Any ideas on how to solve this?
    Thanks,
    Jaime

    That's what it is. Everything else that's generated is a vector except for the grayscale bar and the grayscale pixelated image. Unfortunately, OSX's default way of dealing with images to make them look better is to smooth them. To see what it would look like unsmoothed, open in Preview, go into the Preferences under the PDF tab and de-select "Smooth text and line art". From your description, if there was a way to smooth only the vector and leave the rest unsmoothed, that'd be perfect, but I don't know if that's an option.
    Is there anyway they could generate a higher resolution image for you (double 489 x 460)? The higher the resolution of that image, the less OSX would blur it.

  • When i am creating an iphoto book my pictures looks blurry, is it going to be like that on the real book or is just the software?

    when i am creating an iphoto book my pictures looks blurry, is it going to be like that on the real book or is just the software?

    What resolution are the photos? What size are the photo frames are you placing them in? Are you getting the yellow low resolution warning triangle on them?
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
