Yup. 8x10 dates back to large format days. These days it's more likely to be
8x12, or 6x9, which is 2:3 Aspect ratio. Now the little P&S cameras are
starting to give AR choices, including 16:9, which is what a lot of new
television sets are. I wonder if the 16:9 aspect ration will begin to emerge as
a preferred ratio for photographic prints? I've done a couple that way, and I
have to admit they're rather pleasing to the eye.
