I've got a Canon HD40 camera and when I try and upload the footage in a movie from imovie to vimeo its either too big, or when brought down is wayy crappy quality. Whats a good way to deal with this and make it smaller while keeping quality?

I did suggest something, learn how to compress. Anyone who is making videos should learn how to compress their video, their fucking editing system will do it for them they just have to press the right buttons and they should know that.

If you got the program "compressor" comes with the Final Cut Pro pakacge use it to compress you movie. I did it with this movie:
(http://www.noroff.no/konkurranser/vinn-canon-5d-tilhorende-filmlinse?view=entry&id=6&entryID=21448)
If you have the time vote on it, the blue square with a thumb up, saying "GI DIN STEMME" click on it. Thanks!

If you have "compressor" tell me, and I can tell you step by step what you shall do!
