aspect ratio

No need to add 'picture', that is taken for granted; e.g. 'academy ratio' (=1.33:1) aka 4:3 in television

thanks, JM
Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : Not the usual term in the cinema industry; 16:9 and 4:3 are TV expressions, in cinema we use 1.33:1 (academy), 1.88:1 (widescreen), 2.55:1 (super Panavision) etc.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : No need to add 'picture', and certainly not 'pixel' as in your ref. (that's something quite different)
