Apertus resolution tests

Sebastian recently made some tests to find the highest possible resolution shooting at 24FPS.

Quote:
The speed gains with 8.0 firmware in JP4 mode are really amazing: 2224x1251 @ 24.033fps is 35% bigger than full HD.
It also means more than 35% wider angle with the same lens as the sensor area grows!


.
So I was thinking it would also mean we can have 1080p 'super wide' screen(2.35;1):

(16:9) 2224x1251 = 2782224 total pixels
(2.35:1) 2538x1080 = 2741040 total pixels

And it works!
This would mean we're practically using the whole sensor width.

Keep it at 2528 for a nice division by 16 (remember, JP4 group pixels 8x8 for each color so keeping it mod16 will greatly help afterwards with everything aligned and complete blocks ;))
1088 would be a good idea too.

(that's 2.32:1)
