Would the "Leica " format ratio of 1:1.5 be 'de riguer'? Might not the HDTV
format be more practical? Or one based on the 'golden Mean'?
Just a thought. We often print to 8x10 or 11x14, infrequently, for me at
least, to 8x12, 10x15 or 16x24 and this would mean a more efficient use of
available pixels.
