When you crop to a smaller section of the clip to do a close up, you are using less pixels from the original and spreading them over the frame. They will look bigger and there is no way around this. It's just like looking at a newspaper picture through a magnifying glass ... you see the dots get big. You could apply some artistic filters to hide the pixels, but nothing you can do will make it look sharper or increase the resolution.

For previewing on your camera/tv, i'll assume you have the firewire cable connected to the camera the same way you do for printing to tape after rendering. Connect the A/V outputs of the camera to the television, set the camera for VCR mode, and click the external preview button. This button is just above the preview window and looks like a little monitor screen.

Also, at "Draft" or "Preview" quality, you're not going to get as good of a picture as at "Good" or "Best", so make sure your quality and resolution decisions are made with the right settings.
