Final Cut Clip Adjustment

[tayproductions]

Is there any way to move a clip less than a frame? I have a multicam project that was aligned using plural eyes and they are slightly less than a frame off. I know this ultimately will not make a difference, but I know in vegas you could adjust the clip infinitely. Just curious if there is a way to do that in FCP

In the current FCPro the smallest increment is a frame. Supposedly FCP-X will offer sub-sample editing.

Actually you can, check this.

You cannot move picture less than one frame. That's the minimum sampling unit of picture. There's really no such thing as half a frame, not even in interlaced media.

Think about it. A half frame, quarter frame, sixth frame would still be the same picture as the whole frame.

You cannot move a picture less than a frame, but you can "move" your IN POINT in your audio, in Viewer, within the frame and synch again.
