Some Digtal Frames Are Freakish Distortions… 4:3 Aspect Ratio Matters
Now you may be wondering, “What on earth is 4:3?” Don’t worry—we’re not asking you to do any math.
4:3 is the most common aspect image viewing ratio of photography. Unless you have an “odd” camera it is your cameras image ratio. It is an INDUSTRY STANDARD used by the vast majority of digital cameras. So if your camera is offering picture sizes like 1280×960, 1800×1200, and 2048×1536… then it is a 4:3 ratio camera. So if you want your digital photos displayed on your digital frame without any STEEEEEEERECHED distortion, you’ll want a digital picture frame that also offers 4:3.
While it is not standard for many digital frames on the market display in the 16:9 ratio, which means they WILL distort your photos.

Most photos are taken at 4:3 ratio, so your digital photo frame should display them that way, too.
To make sure your photos are displayed properly CEIVA offers 8-Inch Digital Photo Frames™ that have the 4:3 aspect ratio. We guarantee which means that your photos are displayed perfectly. That’s our True-to-Photo™ image technology at work. If you load your photos onto other frames that don’t feature 4:3, your photos will appear stretched out, cropped off or awkwardly squished.
We think you should enjoy your photos just as you took them—without any distortion.
So until the next post… that’s what CeivaJoe knows!
