David Roberson Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Sorry, noob here, which frame line am I supposed to go off for the Aaton XTR Plus? is it the inner most solid line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted July 27, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted July 27, 2021 It depends what aspect ratio you want to frame for. The full gate is the white area, 1.66:1. For 1.78 (16:9) you would use the tick marks that crop the top and bottom a little, and the full width of the white area. Combo ground glasses can be a bit confusing, if you don’t need to safely preserve for another aspect ratio, getting hold of a ground glass marked with just the aspect ratio you want can be useful. A rental house may have other ground glasses available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted July 27, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted July 27, 2021 I should clarify, the white area is cropped in a little from the full gate - still 1.66 but with a safety margin. Effectively the projection mask area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes those outer black lines are the actual frame edge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
