stranger2156 Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Exceptionally 16x9 Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 I use 16x9 because then they can be watched on HD TV's when it is a MP4. I have also some of the same shows made in 16x10 when they are going to be projected at my camera club in EXE. As a ratio I like 16x10 better, and even bought a new HD computer monitor in that ratio a few months ago. (Was hard to find). Bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul L Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 I always use 16x9 mp4 to view on 4KUHD TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macian Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 16*9 for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelson Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 I am still old school and use the format the image was captured in of 3x2. I have found that certain images lose important information when cropping to 16x9. Many will work with a little work in photoshop with content aware. etc. Too many years shooting slides. I do like the look of 16x9. Kieron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmG-06100 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Like most, I uusually opt for the ratio 16/9 of my 4K TV screen, which is also the ratio for the projector at my photo-club (when we can reconvene). Sometimes, it is 16/10 so that I do not need to crop too much my photos (which are taken at the ratio 4/3 = 1.33). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wideangle Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Surely this is a no-brainer, or am I missing something here? It's not rocket science to say that the aspect ratio of a show is logically going to be dictated and guided by the device on which it is going to be viewed, rather than the device which produced the original images. Creating a show in anything other than 16x9 seems to be a backward step to me. (Just my opinion!) Regards wideangle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary A Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 My beef about DSLRs is that there is no option to shoot 16x9 hence having to crop etc. My cheaper P900 has that capability so why not the others? One would think that eg Nikon and Canon would provide this option. I am not an accomplished photographer but I sure would appreciate not having to crop to 16x9.

Rosemary Hi Rosemary Go Panasonic, most of their range offer variable aspect ratios. Rosy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary A Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 That would be another learning curve for this old brain!! Thanks Rosy. Rosemary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this is a no-brainer, or am I missing something here? Perhaps if your presentations were to audiences of up to 300+ people in large auditoriums, the work of changing all of your images might be overwhelming. My presentations are 30 to 40 minutes long with over 100+ images. To change 20 images for a show, I would have no problem using 16x9. Fortunately the program has the choice of what format you want to use, I really do not see why anyone would care. (Just my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chanfi22 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Exclusively 16x9 for me due to HD TV ratio Philippe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
