Resizing photos for PAL Widescreen

Resizing photos for PAL WidescreenMy brain's hurting trying to work this out! I have some 3008 x 2000 photos to include in a PAL widescreen 16x9 video, using Premiere Elements 4.. What should I crop and resize to, if I want a maximum 200% zoom, and to avoid pixelation? In other words, at 200% zoom the photos will be at 'actual' size.
Regards, John
Re: Resizing photos for PAL WidescreenTo go to a maximum 200% zoom you would need for PAL Widescreen: 2048x1152
Re: Resizing photos for PAL WidescreenI use settings similar to those given by Paul when I want a really tight zoom that is going to remain on screen for more that a couple of seconds. Otherwise I normally use the 're-size' script in Photoshop CS3 to standardise all my pictures from the capture size of 3264x2448 down to 1000x720. At the reduced size they are still good for a zoom of about 200%+ before any degradation is visible on my PC monitor. That degradation is not visible on a TV unless you look really carefully.
As an aside I have used the maximum zoom of 600% without too much loss when viewed on a TV screen AMD Ryzen 3900x 12C/24T, ASUS x570 mobo, Arctic Liquid Freezer ll 280, Win11 64 bit, 64GB RAM, Radeon RX 570 graphics, Samsung 500GB NVMe 980 PRO (C:), Samsung 970 Evo SSD (D:), Dell U2717D Monitor, Synology DS412+ 8TB NAS, Adobe CS6.
Re: Resizing photos for PAL WidescreenMy opinion: If you're going to be doing work on photos that large in order to do such extreme zooms, do this in separate mini-projects that last only a long enough for the effect or, at most, a minute or so. When you're done, use File/Export/Movie to export an AVI of the finished mini-movie and then import that file into your larger project.
This makes much better use of your computer's resources and will lessen the likelihood of program choke as you work. HP Envy with 2.9/4.4 ghz i7-10700 and 16 gig of RAM running Windows 11 Pro
Re: Resizing photos for PAL WidescreenMany thanks everyone for the information and advice. Will take it all on board and set up a test project first
