Aspect Ratios
Image sensors come in a variety of aspect ratios— the ratio of image height to width. The ratio of a square is 1:1 (equal width and height) and that of 35mm film is 1.5:1 (1½ times wider than it is high).

Aspect Ratio is a measurement of a photograph's width to height. Commonly, 35 mm film measures 36:24, creating an aspect ration of 3:2. Such an aspect ratio tends to produce 6″x4″ printed pictures.
