Pan/Crop Zoom Problem

I have a problem doing an ultra zoom out using the pan/zoom.

For example, I have a still photo and I want to start it full screen and then just pull it back to nothingness maybe w/ some rotating as well.

However, the problem is I can only take it back so far. There seems to be this barrier that will let me zoom out only so far. It's even worse when I try to zoom it out and also move it to a side of the screen- due to this barrier stopping the zoom out. You can get pretty far zoomed out of course, but my aim is to zoom out to nothingness.

The barrier I refer to can be seen (depending on the size of the photo- bigger photos can be zoomed out less) in the pan/crop screen if you put the zoom view at 12.5%.

Is there any way around this? And the zoom transistion won't work for what I'm doing. Thanks in advance.

If you are tryint to exceed the 2kx2k limits of the frame in Vegas, you might combine track motion as you get closer to getting the vid to disappear. it would be opposite direction in Track Motion than Pan/Crop, in P/C you're making the boundary larger, whereas in TM you'd be making it smaller.
From your description, it sounds like you've taken Pan/Crop all the way out to its limit.

Thanks DSE. Why have I never used track motion before? I always use pan/zoom, but track motion is doing EXACTLY (and easily) what I want in this situation.
