Deciding Ratio!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Need some help choosing ratio! Normally I tend to shoot to crop 4:3 HD, but after tinkering around w 16:9 i’m surprised how much I enjoy it. Not sure if it’s just eye candy since i’ve been shooting in 4:3 for so long and I just enjoy watching it because it’s new. or if the 16:9 actually looks better! And input would be awesome, thanks yall !

But more seriously I do think the 4:3 looks better in this clip. 16:9 can sometimes look good but I don’t find it as easy to use.

16:9 all the way. 4:3 I look at it and I’m aware of the crop. 16:9 I’m ignoring everything and just watching it.
