Crop a video to 2:3, the vertical 35mm frame. It is 3:2 stood on end, and it matches a 4x6 print in portrait.

Narrower than a feed post

2:3 sits between 4:5 and 9:16. Against a 1920 px height it is 1280 px wide, where 4:5 would be 1536 px and 9:16 would be 1080 px.

That makes it a poor fit for a social feed, which expects 4:5 or 9:16, and a good fit for print-derived layouts and portrait photo grids where the surrounding stills are already 2:3.

The crop is severe from landscape

A 1920x1080 frame cropped to 2:3 keeps 720x1080: 37.5% of the width. That is close to the 9:16 cut and carries the same risk of losing anything composed away from the centre.

Fit with bars keeps everything instead. The full picture lands 1280x720 across the middle of a 1280x1920 frame with 600 px of background above and below.

From vertical footage

A 1080x1920 phone clip cropped to 2:3 keeps 1080x1620 and trims 300 px of height. That is a gentle cut, and it is the usual reason to be at this ratio: taking a phone recording into a layout built for portrait stills.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is 3:2 turned upright: the vertical 35mm still frame, and the shape of a 4x6 print in portrait. It suits video meant to sit beside portrait stills or inside a print-derived layout.

A 1920x1080 source gives 1280x1920. A 1080x1920 vertical source gives 1280x1920 as well, since both share a 1920 px long edge.

2:3 is taller. Against a 1920 px height, 2:3 is 1280 px wide and 4:5 is 1536 px, so 2:3 reads as a narrower portrait frame.

Cropping 1920x1080 to 2:3 keeps a 720x1080 box, which is 37.5% of the width.
