Standard Aspect Ratios Guide
16:9 & 9:16 (Modern Video)
16:9 is the international standard for HDTV, YouTube, video games, and computer monitors (1920×1080, 2560×1440, 3840×2160). 9:16 is the rotated vertical standard used by TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
4:3 & 3:2 (Photography & Print)
4:3 is the classic standard for analog TV and iPad displays. 3:2 originates from traditional 35mm photographic film and is the native aspect ratio for modern DSLR and mirrorless camera sensors.
21:9 & 1:1 (Cinema & Feeds)
21:9 (or 2.39:1) provides cinematic ultrawide viewing without horizontal black bars. 1:1 represents balanced square imagery favored by traditional Instagram grid posts and profile avatars.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an aspect ratio?
An aspect ratio is the proportional relationship between the width and height of an image, video, or display screen, commonly written as two numbers separated by a colon, such as 16:9 or 4:3.
What is the standard aspect ratio for modern video and screens?
16:9 is the universal standard for modern displays, HDTVs, YouTube videos, and computer monitors. Vertical formats like TikTok and Instagram Reels use 9:16.
How do you calculate a missing dimension?
To find a missing height given a target width and ratio W:H, multiply the target width by (H / W). To find a missing width given a target height, multiply the target height by (W / H).
Is my screen or image data sent anywhere?
No. All calculations run strictly in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Zero data is recorded or transmitted.
