Kevin Korom, I didn't read the entire page but the information on Super35 at the link you provided is in error regarding 1.60:1.
That doesn't surprise me, many sites that HTF members passionately reference have errors. I occasionally bring attention to that and take a lot of flak for doing so, with folks often choosing to believe the websites. I don't know what to say other than the sites are wrong sometimes. In fact, the widescreen FAQ that this site featured had errors in it. I pointed them out, there was a lot of discussion and they were acknowledged, though I do not know if it was ever corrected since I can't ever find that page. There's a popular U.K. site that uses an image with planes for samples, which has errors. To be honest it's awkward, in that many HT enthusiasts criticize J6P for letterboxing ignorance or whatever but they themselves propagate a lot of misinformation. Not that I'm infallible, but I do see it here and I'd feel irresponsible to not address it in a forum I respect (thus me interjecting myself into Super35 threads, which is apparently misunderstood by many here).
