Operation 2.2.

Crop box handling with the aspect unlocked:

If the image should not be cropped in order to get the selected output format the ´lock aspect´ button photo can be switched off. This mode allows to only downsize the aspect ratio starting from the chosen ratio in the ‘output format’ node. The result is a horizontally- centered image with a letterbox on both sides. Check in the film view for the look. The projectable image height remains constant according to the chosen projection aspect ratio.

To enlarge the aspect ratio (e.g. 1.66 to 1.85) means to decrease the projectable image height. To do so, change the projection aspect ratio in the output node!
