Is There a Difference between the Video and the Effect Track?

I've inserted a still photograph on the video track between two video clips. For this photograph, I am adding a zoom-in effect.

Is there a difference whether I put this effect on the Effect track or whether I place it on top of the photograph on the Video track?

I've done it both ways and can't visibly see any difference. ---

In my view no problem, add the effect on the track effect can adjust the time for it, different the image time.
I prefer to give the effect zoom in / out, by magic motiom or pip designer for images (photos)

Excellent!

As a n00b to PD, your suggestion was much appreciated. I like that I can fine-tune the zooming motion, such as the size of the zoom as well as the direction/path.

Thank you! ---
