cell phone video with wings?
I see loads of videos with a video in the middle and an out of focus
partial video on each side of it. I've concluded that these are cell-phone videos. Yes? So how come none of my cellphone video was like this? And, how come theirs are? My cellphone video and photos were probably not as good as I got from a real camera, even point and shoot, but they look pretty good and they don't have blurry wings. |

They were taken in portrait format, and artificially expanded to landscape format for television presentation. Perhaps so that viewers didn't report that half their TV screen was broken? As you will have gathered, I'm not a fan of this! When I take images, I rotate my phone to landscape orientation, something which seems beyond some people's capability!

My cellphone video and photos were probably not as good as I got from a real camera, even point and shoot, but they look pretty good and they don't have blurry wings. They were taken in portrait format, and artificially expanded to landscape format for television presentation. Aha. The last thing I would put at the edges is a blurry version of part of the picture, something that is moving too. It's distracting. I'd rather have all black, or all white, or maybe slogans like "Don't molest women", "54-40 or fight", "No dating anyone under 18" or "Stop at 2" Perhaps so that viewers didn't report that half their TV screen was broken? It's bad when half the screen is broken. Just try to get a repairman to make half a service call. As you will have gathered, I'm not a fan of this! I can tell. When I take images, I rotate my phone to landscape orientation, something which seems beyond some people's capability! G LOL I take maybe 95% in landscape, but especially when I'm close, I've used portrait to get a whole sign or portrait etc. in the picture. I found ways to rotate even the videos, and I'm showing my pictures for the first time to 4 people tomorrow, but haven't had time to rotate anything. So they'll have to turn their heads! or we can just skip to the next picture. At least there won't be blurry wings. Off topic, on my trip last spring, I took 2 or 3 videos of videos (at museums) and they came out amazingly well, fully as useful as the original. I thought it would ge like video of a television screen, which usually shows big black and white stripes. Is that only true for CRT tvs? |

It's purely a matter of aspect ratio - how to display a 9:16 (portrait) image on a 16:9 (landscape) screen. Similar issues arise when looking at a old 4:3 video on a 16:9 screen. -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |
