Cinema CINEMA Select Cinema to view 2.35
source material in its native
aspect ratio.
With a 16:9 screen and a
non-CineWide projector (no
anamorphic lens), the upper and
lower portions of the screen are
masked, but the geometry of the
active image area is unchanged.
With a 2.35:1 screen and a
CineWide-equipped projector,
the DHD Controller vertically
stretches the 2.35 image so that
the active image area fills the
16:9 chip surface, eliminating
the black bars. The secondary
anamorphic lens then stretches
the image back to 2.35:1.
Virtualwide 2.35 SVC A 16:9 image is scaled
NON-linearly (more on the sides
than in the center) to fit a 2.35:1
screen.
Virtualwide 2.35 is available only
on CineWide-equipped VX-2
projectors.
