Adjust stabilization settings
You can adjust how much of a correction is applied by the stabilization feature.
The stabilization feature has two independent phases:
•
When you apply the stabilization feature to a clip, Final Cut Pro analyzes the pixels in
successive frames to determine the direction of camera movement.
•
During playback and rendering, Final Cut Pro uses the motion analysis data to apply a
transform effect to each frame, compensating for camera movement.
Use any of the three independent stabilization parameter sliders in the Video inspector to
control the steadiness of your shot. When you apply stabilization to a clip, all three parameters
are set to an average value of 2.5 by default. Each parameter can be set to a value between 0.0
and 5.0. A value of 0.0 turns off the parameter, and a value of 5.0 applies the strongest possible
transformation. The higher you set each parameter, the more camera motion is compensated for
in that axis.
