Shoutout to 1x1 and then letterbox shapes of various ratios

The 5x7 aspect ratio of 1.4 is very similar to the ISO A size aspect ratio of 1.414. A very practical choice. Unfortunate that no cameras do it natively.

display ratios really have nothing in common with the stop ratios we use for ISO, aperture and shutter speed... So I'm basically saying the connection is completely irrelevant.
