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 video
processor scales the 2.35:1
image so that the active
image area fills the 16:9
chip surface, eliminating
the black bars. The
secondary, anamorphic
lens then restores the
proper geometry to the
2.35:1 image.
