Almost all of this was shot at 16:9, so where it appears to be a different ratio, I used masks. At the time, I liked the "effect". I'm not liking it all that much now.

That makes sense. That second auction I mentioned really shocked me. The prices on these are fixed at $6100, and I know of one retailer selling some demo units for a few hundred less, but that's it...
