Re: viewer quality vs. canvas quality HELP!

Just to add to what's already been said. What you see in the Viewer is the native file but what you see in the Canvas comes from the timeline. In your specific case the Viewer is showing a hi-res photo while the Canvas is showing a hi-res photo shrunk down to SD size and compressed w/the DV codec. Also, the Canvas doesn't show images at full quality and needs to be set to 100% in order for both fields to be displayed (if it's set to less than 100% only one field will be shown).

As Walter said though, to see what you really have you need to be looking at it on an external monitor.
