10x8 prints.

[inaneredstripe]

how many people find it inceredibly annoying that your cameras aspect ratio is 3:2, yet everyone wants 10x8 prints (5:4).?
you have to crop great chunks of the shot off.
and why dont commercialy available frames become more easily available in , say, 8x12.

This has been doing my head in for a while now...!!!

Although with the white studio style shots its easy to get around " just a pain in the ass"

ta guys.
yeah, i know you can get em, just odd that 10x8's are more popular.
as said, not too bad if were shooting studio, but clients always seem to want a tight crop, AND 10x8.

I went in to my local Hobbycraft store. Fifty yards or more of picture frames. Not one A4 or A3 size.

As yiu know Mark, we struggled to get 12x8 frames for our wedding shots, Got some eventually but choice was very limited. We didnt want to crop as the pictures were composed just right in the 3:2 ratio.

I've stopped supplying 10x8 to my clients - 12x8 is the smallest size now
