2.35:1 Aspect Ratio
CinemaScope
|
2.35:1 (CinemaScope)
This is the 35 mm anamorphic standard prior to 1970, used by CinemaScope ("'Scope") and early Panavision. The anamorphic standard has subtly changed so that modern anamorphic productions are actually 2.39 (2:40:1) but often referred to as 2.35 anyway due to old convention.
A majority of major released films use this aspect ratio and this is why most people choose this aspect ratio screen when building a dedicated home theater where movie watching out weighs sports and gaming. This aspect ratio is much wider than the HDTV 1.78:1 |

16:9 (1.78:1) Aspect Ratio
HDTV
|
1.78:1 (16:9)
Also referred to as 16:9, High Definition, HDTV or Widescreen. This is the international standard format of HDTV as used in the United States, Australia, Japan and Canada as well as in Europe on satellite and non-HD widescreen television (EDTV) PALplus. The 1.78:1 aspect ratio was the compromise between the 35 mm US and UK widescreen standard (1.85:1) and the 35 mm European widescreen standard (1.66:1)
This is now a standard aspect ratio in the USA and all HD projectors (720 or 1080) natively project at this Aspect Ratio. This is also one of the most popular choices for home theaters and media rooms when sports and gaming outweighs movie watching.
