jimbo035 Posted April 9, 2015 Share #1 Posted April 9, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Fancying a DPF as an alternative to the PC monitor to display 3:2 "images" from my D-lux, a problem seems likely to be encountered simply because the DPF specs I've seen so far give their ratio as 4:3 - or less frequently 16:9. (Yes I know the D-lux offers all three, but I prefer 3:2) What would a DPF do with or to a 3:2 image ? Fill its screen by lopping off the top and bottom, or displaying it unaltered with blank spaces on either side ? I would like to continue using the 3:2 format... so perhaps a DPF can be kicked off my wish-list ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

giordano Posted April 13, 2015 Share #2 Posted April 13, 2015 It depends on the DPF. I think some of them give you a choice, including stretching the image to fit the screen. For a high quality display, how about using a Microsoft Surface 3 (or Surface Pro 3) tablet? These have 3:2 screens with higher resolution than any DPF I've seen, and because they run full-blown Windows you have an excellent choice of software.

jankap Posted April 17, 2015 Share #3 Posted April 17, 2015 What about the HD-format 16 x 9? I believe (?) that there are DPFs with HD. The FF format is in the center with left and right cropped. Jan Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
