3MP and 5MP Cameras Going Widescreen

Author: Ethan Ace, Published on Jan 04, 2018

For years, 3MP and 5MP cameras used the traditional 4:3 aspect ratio.

Now, in an emerging trend, newer generation 3MP and 5MP cameras use 16:9 wide aspect ratios.

In this note, we examine the change, review manufacturers like Axis and Hikvision supporting this and the tradeoffs of this shift.
