Poor man's Xpan (and 16:9) images. Anonymous 01/25/26(Sun)08:50:08 No.4495236

Since I'm unlikely to ever get any kind of Xpan camera, I thought it might be interesting to post some wide crops from two cheap digicams and a phone (Fuijfilm J20, JX500 and Nokia Lumia 520) taken over the last few years. The JX500 has a scratched lens but nice colours and I think it does OK.

Some of these I've posted before, some I haven't.

That's it for now. Thanks for looking (and maybe post some of your own).

2:1 really is the best aspect ratio but anything noticably wide and letterboxed is just kino

I agree. Lately I've been composing for it more and more.

No reason for these to be so wide though
X-Pan is a format only fit for very specific use cases
Otherwise it just looks like you cropped for no particular reason

I stitched this from 3 photos. Otherwise, I usually don't go for the wide/XPAN ratios.

I should try 2:1 more often.
