Thank you everyone who has helped me! I'm going to contact the Lab and ask them to send me the overscan!

The bottom one is the groundglass I used, Im guessing perhaps it was missaligned? :(

Thanks Kenny, the groundglass was different to that, Check my picture, It had the same thing in the bottom right corner but it said 185 (s16) as opposed to 166

Thanks David Mullen, Great idea, Here is a sketch of what the ground glass looked like and how I composed the frame, http://imgur.com/7GWkJMp

Thanks guys! The groundglass 100% said 1:85, within the viewfinder. So for the full-apeture do I ask for a full apeture 16:9? Full apeture 1:85 or just full apeture?

Does anybody have experience with the ARRI SR3 Advanced shooting on Super 16MM? I have just got my rushes back for my film and highly confused and incredibly dissapointed with the results, in the viewfinder i was composing for 1:85:1, and have had the lab process the film at the same ratio, but I have lost alot of height from what I framed!!! The top of people heads are now cut off, and I definetly framed differently. I even have pictures of the monitor from video-output as proof! Is the gate height smaller then standard 1:85:1? I'm trying to work out if the Lab messed up, or I have.
