There strong reactions just came as a little bit of a shock. Logically the video would be better shot in 4:3 as it works with the content. They just seemed to condemn it for very little reason (apart from the fact that the black bars either side of their new computer/tv screen would bother them). However the video will be internet based and vimeo gives you the option of both the 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios so unless you want to full screen it this doesn't seem like a huge problem. Their reactions just seem a little unthinking and they seem to condemn 4:3 with very little justification. Also my camera is native 4:3 but can shoot squeeze 16:9 without losing too much resolution. It's an SD camcorder (DVX100B) and I too am always behind with technology due to cost. But I kinda like it that way.

Of course I meant to say “early 20th century” (and late 19th)…. We actually don’t have a record of how fast people walked early 19th century…
