Is It Impossible?

Guys,
I've done a re-evaluation of these clips. After opening a standard DV project, I imported the original DV clip in the timeline and the 16:9 clip (HDV to DV) of the same image. I sized both clips to appear the same in the monitor window. After rendering both clips, and viewing them side-by-side, I added 11.0 gain of Brightness and used the default Sharpen tool on the 16.9 clip. Then, exported both images together on the timeline, to mpg2DVD (.m2v). When played back, the difference is ever so slight in sharpness. I'm very encouraged with these results.

If I could manually adjust the sharpness on the HDV to DV clip in Premiere, I think it would look identical to the DV clip.

Thanks Steven............ Thanks Ron .........and everyone else for putting up with this Novice.
