2:1
Displays a ratio slightly wider than 16:9 but not as wide as 2.35:1.
1.85:1
Displays another common flat widescreen cinema aspect ratio. This ratio is slightly wider than HDTV
1.78:1 but not as wide as 2.39:1.
16:9
Displays a 1.78:1 aspect ratio compatible with 16:9 HD television and computer screens. This ratio is
most commonly used for HD broadcasting and online videos. The same aspect ratio has also been
adopted for Ultra HD broadcasting.
14:9
Displays a 14:9 aspect ratio used by some television broadcasters as a compromise between 16:9 and
4:3 television sets. Ideally, both 16:9 and 4:3 footage remains legible when center cropped to fit 14:9.
You can use this as a compositional guide if you know your project may be broadcast by a television
station that uses 14:9 cropping.
4:3
Displays the 4:3 aspect ratio compatible with SD television screens, or to help with framing when
using 2x anamorphic adapters.
1:1
Displays a 1:1 ratio slightly narrower than 4:3. This square ratio is growing in popularity on social media.
