I'm in my element.  I just received today the Lost in Space bluray set.  I like the graphics on the packaging, the discs are an absolute nightmare to get out of the sleeves but I mustn't complain as I'm over the moon with the image quality of the discs.  I couldn't resist to put a disc in my player to check them out.  You can see every detail on our B9 friend including the texturing.  One thing surprised me was the aspect ratio.  I thought it was going to be wide screen.  it's not a problem because I can use the zoom aspect on my TV to fill the screen and I've actually found myself watching it in it's natural aspect with the black bars on the sides.  Now down to some serious episode viewing :-)

There is one episode in wide screen as an extra.  I have to admit, I was wanting them all in wide screen after watching that one.  I was all for the 4x3, but now I think the slight cut offs are not a big deal and that wide screen would have been better.   Bobby

I must admit I have Gerry Anderson's Thunderbirds on bluray and that was done widescreen.  There were complaints about cutoff top and bottom, but I must admit the framing for each scene throughout the set even in the credit roll at the end was so good I never noticed.  I've started to watch the LIS set from the beginning and really enjoying the clarity.

The aspect ratio was a part of the controversy.
The show was not filmed in wide screen.  It was filmed in what they called "4:3" - which is more of a square than a rectangle.  (The marketing geniuses of today confuse people by calling it "full screen".)
Anyway, the physical film is slightly wider than a 4:3 television.  So, the original picture has been cropped a bit smaller to fit the older TVs.
Although the original film is wider than the standard 4:3 TV, it is not nearly as wide as today's standard 16:9 widescreen TVs.  So, it does not completely fill up a widescreen TV.  But, it does have a larger picture than originally aired.
The magic of these DVDs is that they've incorporated as much of the original image as possible - as well as digitally cleaning up the picture.
You'll have to determine what you prefer.  You can watch it "as is" or zoom in.  But, using your TV's zoom feature will cut off a portion of the top and bottom of the image.
Enjoy.

Aspect ratios tvs (full screen) ratio is 1:33:1 35mm aspect ration up to 1953 had been the standard 1:37:1 the first scope film was "The Robe" it was filmed twice once for the then standard format and at the same time for the new scope projection if you compare the two films you'll see slight differences in performances film is my first hobby (see pix my home theater) got some LIS episodes in 16mm (war of the robots , The keeper, Mr. Nobody)

The aspect ratio was a part of the controversy.
The show was not filmed in wide screen. It was filmed in what they called "4:3" - which is more of a square than a rectangle. (The marketing geniuses of today confuse people by calling it "full screen".)
Anyway, the physical film is slightly wider than a 4:3 television. So, the original picture has been cropped a bit smaller to fit the older TVs.
Although the original film is wider than the standard 4:3 TV, it is not nearly as wide as today's standard 16:9 widescreen TVs. So, it does not completely fill up a widescreen TV. But, it does have a larger picture than originally aired.
The magic of these DVDs is that they've incorporated as much of the original image as possible - as well as digitally cleaning up the picture.
You'll have to determine what you prefer. You can watch it "as is" or zoom in. But, using your TV's zoom feature will cut off a portion of the top and bottom of the image.
Enjoy.

I'm in my element. I just received today the Lost in Space bluray set. I like the graphics on the packaging, the discs are an absolute nightmare to get out of the sleeves but I mustn't complain as I'm over the moon with the image quality of the discs. I couldn't resist to put a disc in my player to check them out. You can see every detail on our B9 friend including the texturing. One thing surprised me was the aspect ratio. I thought it was going to be wide screen. it's not a problem because I can use the zoom aspect on my TV to fill the screen and I've actually found myself watching it in it's natural aspect with the black bars on the sides. Now down to some serious episode viewing :-)

Same thing.  1.33:1 aspect ratio is the same as 4:3
Just take 4 and divide it by 3 and it equals 1.33
The only thing that I still have in my 16mm collection that's worth anything is War of The Worlds.

Yes, I was expecting the 4:3 ratio and was pleasantly surprised to see a noticeably wider display.  This set is fantastic.

Anyway, the physical film is slightly wider than a 4:3 television.  So, the original picture has been cropped a bit smaller to fit the older TVs.
Although the original film is wider than the standard 4:3 TV, it is not nearly as wide as today's standard 16:9 widescreen TVs.  So, it does not completely fill up a widescreen TV.  But, it does have a larger picture than originally aired.
The magic of these DVDs is that they've incorporated as much of the original image as possible - as well as digitally cleaning up the picture.
You'll have to determine what you prefer.  You can watch it "as is" or zoom in.  But, using your TV's zoom feature will cut off a portion of the top and bottom of the image.

hello,

for me, I would be so happy if the only benefit I got from the set was the higher resolution pictures of the robot to study. So, having the entire shows in higher resolution is even better.

As one person commenting already said, most importantly, ENJOY !

thanks,

David M.

So we are seeing the edges that were in frame, but not shown on TV due to the way the older TVs worked?   Bobby

The show was not filmed in wide screen.  It was filmed in what they called "4:3" - which is more of a square than a rectangle.  (The marketing geniuses of today confuse people by calling it "full screen".)
Anyway, the physical film is slightly wider than a 4:3 television.  So, the original picture has been cropped a bit smaller to fit the older TVs.
Although the original film is wider than the standard 4:3 TV, it is not nearly as wide as today's standard 16:9 widescreen TVs.  So, it does not completely fill up a widescreen TV.  But, it does have a larger picture than originally aired.
The magic of these DVDs is that they've incorporated as much of the original image as possible - as well as digitally cleaning up the picture.
You'll have to determine what you prefer.  You can watch it "as is" or zoom in.  But, using your TV's zoom feature will cut off a portion of the top and bottom of the image.
Enjoy.

  I'm in my element.  I just received today the Lost in Space bluray set.  I like the graphics on the packaging, the discs are an absolute nightmare to get out of the sleeves but I mustn't complain as I'm over the moon with the image quality of the discs.  I couldn't resist to put a disc in my player to check them out.  You can see every detail on our B9 friend including the texturing.  One thing surprised me was the aspect ratio.  I thought it was going to be wide screen.  it's not a problem because I can use the zoom aspect on my TV to fill the screen and I've actually found myself watching it in it's natural aspect with the black bars on the sides.  Now down to some serious episode viewing :-)

Attachments :that's my understanding. The original frame was nowhere near today's definition of widescreen, but, IMO, noticeably wider than 4:3

So we are seeing the edges that were in frame, but not shown on TV due to the way the older TVs worked?   Bobby   ----- Original Message ----- From: jeff.derose@comcast.net [B9Builders] To: B9Builders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2015 8:51 AM Subject: Re: [B9Builders] Re: LIS Bluray's
  Yes, I was expecting the 4:3 ratio and was pleasantly surprised to see a noticeably wider display.  This set is fantastic.

  Same thing.  1.33:1 aspect ratio is the same as 4:3
Just take 4 and divide it by 3 and it equals 1.33
The only thing that I still have in my 16mm collection that's worth anything is War of The Worlds.

  [Attachment(s) from WIlliam Colleton included below] Aspect ratios  tvs  (full screen) ratio is 1:33:1   35mm  aspect ration up to 1953 had been the standard 1:37:1   the first scope film was "The Robe"  it was filmed twice once for the then standard format and at the same time for the new scope projection    if you compare the two films you'll see slight differences in performances   film is my first  hobby  (see pix my home theater)   got some LIS episodes in 16mm     (war of the robots , The keeper, Mr. Nobody)
