> Subject: [Digital BW] Matting and Framing
>
> Hello Everyone,
>
> I shoot digital (Nikon D70). The aspect ratio of this camera
> is not the same as a film camera. For instance, if I set the
> image height for 10 inches, the width will be 6.67 (to keep
> the proper aspect ratio). As best I know, I have to oversize
> the print then monkey around with the cropping to get an
> 8x10. Most of the time I don't like to crop because I'm
> careful about in-camera framing.
>
> However, precut matts are all sized for film camera aspect
> ratios (8x10, 11x14, etc).
>
> So....I have to get my matts custom cut to fit the print.
> This is expensive.
>
> Is there something I'm not getting? Is there a way around
> this problem, or do I have to keep getting custom cut matts?

> Help!
