Part 1: The iPhone App of the Year: Spectre Camera
Social networks have made photography more popular than ever. However, the quality of pictures taken with Smartphones still cannot be compared to the quality of images produced on DSLR cameras .
The iPhone app of the year provides a solution to this issue by employing the latest computational photography techniques. The Spectre Camera is equipped with an AI that can easily create long-exposure photographs, remove crowds from images and detect scenes automatically . The app saves all pictures it takes during a long-exposure and generates live photos by merging all images into a single breathtaking shot.
Optionally, you can apply live effects to each image you take with Spectre Camera if you would like to enhance its colors or highlight a particular detail. Image stabilization features are designed to keep all photos you shoot handheld sharp, while Spectre Camera also offers the automatic tripod detection option. The app’s machine learning algorithms detect scenes and provide all the help you need to produce professional-looking photos with your iPhone.
As the popularity of social media platforms continues to grow, so does the demand for photo and video applications that are compatible with iOS devices.

1. Ocean Footage underwater sample
This one is first on my choice of 4K video sample for a couple of reasons, firstly I love the subject matter, and secondly from a technical perspective it is one of the best samples out there.
Filmed using a Red One camera, it displays the vibrancy and detail that we associate with 4K resolution at its best, the color depth of the fish and coral is astounding, and when the shot moves to a passing whale the sense of scale the resolution gives really shows what 4K is capable of, and why it is a step up from anything we have seen before.
2. Trailer for the movie ‘Elysium’
Very little movie production footage is easily available out there in 4K, but this is one of the exceptions. The full theatrical trailer for the movie in glorious Ultra HD, Why does this make the list? Well I think if you are wanting to see the benefits of 4K, then samples like the Ocean Footage one mentioned above really show off the technical prowess, but it is actual movies that most people will be wanting to use 4K kit for, and this gives you a very good indication of how much of an increase in clarity, detail and vibrancy can be gained by switching to 4K. The standard HD version of this trailer is readily available too, so this is something you could make a direct comparison with. The nature of the film, a sci-fi action film, also lends itself to 4K with lots of beautifully rendered CGI scenes in the trailer to look at.
3. Timescapes
This is the trailer for an interesting project, filmed entirely in 4K and the work of one man, it is purported to be the first 4K film made available for sale. The film itself, and this trailer, is a simple concept, slow-motion and time lapse cinematography of the South West of America, taken as the director, Tom Lowe, travels around in his pickup truck. The concept itself makes for an interesting effect, but this sample is here because of the content. Watching the big expanses of nature flow by in 4K is simply mind blowing, here you really see the almost 3D effect so much resolution and detail bring to the medium, it isn’t like watching a video, it really is like looking out of a window at real life.
4. Boat Scenes
There are actually several test videos on this subject, all of them do a good job of displaying 4K but for me it is the this one that focuses on passing boats against an expansive backdrop that is the one to look at. Again it shows the effect of 4K resolution when displaying the wider world around us, this time a harbor vista as the boat passes through it, detail can be seen in the water, the passengers on the boat and the backdrop, and the sense of realism and scale, which for me are the things that set 4K apart, are readily apparent here.
5. Tears of Steel trailer
Another rare 4K movie trailer, this one again shows lots of very high quality CGI that really show off the capabilities of 4K at their best. Some great use of the depth of field that 4K emphasizes in a lot of the shots and overall provides a great insight into 4K and what you can expect from it. An interesting video that also manages to tell a little story as well as being a showcase.
6. Sintel
Sintel is an animated short created in the blender animation program, here in 4K it represents a fantastic look into what 4K can offer all forms of media, the opening scene, with the snow blowing in the wind, for instance, enables you to see incredible detail that just isn’t visible within the standard HD version. Seeing individual flies as the character searches through the wreckage of a town is another high point in terms of technical prowess.
Another feature of Sintel is its soft focus look that accentuates the high resolution, and makes this video stand out from others in the list. The small dragon is well animated and the main characters features, particularly the hair, are incredibly well realized. A great way to showcase your 4K equipment.
7. Stock Footage Sample
This one is an amalgam of short clips from commercial stock footage that is used a sample of the product. That doesn’t make it any less of a fantastic 4K clip however, with footage chosen specifically to show off the benefits of 4K at its very best (it is a promotional package after all) there is something here for everyone. From the glorious colors of a sunrise to the explosions and the amazing time lapse, with, again, fantastic and vibrant colors, a real showcase for 4K in the true sense of the word.
8. Honey Bees
Back to nature for this one, and the eponymous Honey Bee. Showing not only the color rendition and detail of the surroundings, it also captures the Bees themselves in incredible fidelity, the wing detail, especially on the close-ups, is just way beyond anything we have seen from moving images before, high resolution stills? Certainly, but not video. Another great advert for 4K footage and a lovely film as well.
9. Skyfall Trailer
Can’t say I’m much of a fan of the films, but as a way to see what very fast action looks like in 4K this is a great one. Unlike the other movie trailers, this one isn’t full of CGI, so it shows a different aspect of 4K movies here, the real-life stunts performed by traditional stunt professionals is what this one is all about. And it doesn’t let us down, crashes, explosions and car chases, everything that Bond is about. Except in 4K. Great.
10. Fireworks
This one is just a lot of fun. Fireworks, in 4K. Color rendition, detail, it has it all. It opens with a magnificent view across the city showing the lights at dusk and beyond, and then into the stunning firework display, it really is quite spectacular and a great look at 4K footage.
That’s our top 10, not all the best technically, but each offers something a little different to give a taste of what 4K is all about, and exactly what your 4K screen is capable of.
There are multiple 4K video converters with powerful functions. However, if video converting is new to you, consider Wondershare UniConverter , which is a powerful but easy-to-use tool for users just starting out. Download the free trial version below.

1. Ocean Footage underwater sample
This one is first on my choice of 4K video sample for a couple of reasons, firstly I love the subject matter, and secondly from a technical perspective it is one of the best samples out there.
Filmed using a Red One camera, it displays the vibrancy and detail that we associate with 4K resolution at its best, the color depth of the fish and coral is astounding, and when the shot moves to a passing whale the sense of scale the resolution gives really shows what 4K is capable of, and why it is a step up from anything we have seen before.
2. Trailer for the movie ‘Elysium’
Very little movie production footage is easily available out there in 4K, but this is one of the exceptions. The full theatrical trailer for the movie in glorious Ultra HD, Why does this make the list? Well I think if you are wanting to see the benefits of 4K, then samples like the Ocean Footage one mentioned above really show off the technical prowess, but it is actual movies that most people will be wanting to use 4K kit for, and this gives you a very good indication of how much of an increase in clarity, detail and vibrancy can be gained by switching to 4K. The standard HD version of this trailer is readily available too, so this is something you could make a direct comparison with. The nature of the film, a sci-fi action film, also lends itself to 4K with lots of beautifully rendered CGI scenes in the trailer to look at.
3. Timescapes

Quickly Calculate Aspect Ratios: The Best Online Resources
Best 5 Aspect Ratio Calculators Online
An easy yet powerful editor
Numerous effects to choose from
Detailed tutorials provided by the official channel
Have you noticed how certain old movies play with black padding on either side of the screen while watching the television?
With this guide of the best five aspect ratio calculators online we’ve put together for you, you cannot go wrong!
In this article
01 [Typical Aspect Ratios and Sizes of Screens and Videos](#Part 1)
02 [How Do I Know the Aspect Ratio of My Video?](#Part 2)
03 [How Can I Change the Aspect Ratio of an Image Online?](#Part 3)
04 [How to Change the Aspect Ratio in Filmora/Filmora Pro?](#Part 4)
Part 1 Part 1: Typical Aspect Ratios and Sizes of Screens and Videos
An aspect ratio is a measurement representing the ratio between the width and height of a screen or a video. It determines the length of your video or screen. Not only screens and videos, but you can use the concept also in images.
And, it is written as ‘x:y’ where ‘x’ is the width and ‘y’ is the height.
There isn’t any one-size-fits-all when we need to use the video aspect ratios. Aspect ratios are generally selected based on where the video will post, how it will be visible, and what aim it usually serves.
Videos utilized for social media will vary from trailers shows or movies shown in theaters. There are common aspect ratios for modern televisions, but broadcasters can consider using the aspect ratio that operates great with their audience and content.
Since most videos showcase through standard online video platforms, custom aspect ratios are not commonly used.
Here are a few standard aspect ratios that you can use for live streaming and other video creation:
16:9
A 16:9 aspect ratio represents a wide rectangle. It is also called “1.71:1,” the most accessible form of the ratio, mathematically speaking.
This ratio is mainly used in video creation and streaming and is considered the international standard format for cinema and television.
Many also tend to use this highly famous aspect ratio on their sites.
It is also more cost-effective to use screens compatible with this ratio instead of their predecessors. The standardization of computer monitors and televisions saved producers both the money and time spent in the research field.
One of the ideal resolutions you can use with a 16:9 aspect ratio is 4Kor 3840 pixels by 2160 pixels.
1:1
The 1:1 video aspect ratio is one of the ideal squares used with square television sets.
It is much less in demand but usually visible on social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram.
Many cameras still have a square setting even though it’s not the most commonly used aspect ratio.
4:3
The 4:3 aspect ratio was the general screen size for computer monitors and televisions before 16:9 and 16:10. The reason for the switch was the HDTV birth. It’s because the 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios allow for better resolutions than 4:3 do.
This aspect ratio was still considered for Apple iPads until they released the 2018 iPad Pro.
3:2
The 3:2 aspect ratio was primarily seen in classic 35 mm still photography still used on tablets, laptops, and various game consoles in the handheld form.
Many micro- to medium-sized cameras still use the 3:2 aspect ratio settings, but broadcasters rarely use it today.
21:9
The 21:9 aspect ratios have a pretty specific purpose. It is often called cinematic widescreen or ultra-widescreen.
It is also helpful for films with an anamorphic format. Anamorphic format videos create an optical illusion that offers a 360-degree view.
You are likely to look for the videos with this aspect ratio in notable museums, theme parks, theaters, and the like.
9:16
A 9:16 aspect ratio is for tall videos. This aspect ratio became famous after the launch of smartphones with video capabilities.
For instance, the optimal measure for an Instagram story is 1080 px by 1920 px, and thus its ratio comes out as 9:16. The same goes for other famous apps with “story” features, including Snapchat and Facebook.
This makes sense because the iPhone camera’s video setting can record footage in both 16:9 and 9:16.
Part 2 How Do I Know the Aspect Ratio of My Video?
Most cameras with video capabilities are available with various aspect ratio settings. This helps you decide which aspect ratio you’d like your video to have before recording it.
If you are looking to determine the aspect ratio of a video already shot, you can easily access additional information for the file.
The information button is a small “i” in a circle on Mac. Move on to right-click a file and select “Properties“ on your PC.
It may give you the actual width and height of the video, but you can divide the two to find the aspect ratio.
However, you don’t need to hassle as we’ll enlist the best five aspect ratio calculators online below.
01Calculate Aspect Ratio
Our first pick-in aspect ratio calculator online is used simply by entering Common Presets. Then, there are tabs where you can enter Ratio Width, Ratio Height, Pixels Width, and Pixels Height.
It can help determine the aspect ratio of both the images and the videos.
Pros
Good user interface
Simple tabs for inputs
Fast loading speed
Cons
Pretty confusing for beginners to know which inputs to enter
02Digital Rebellion Aspect Ratio Calculator
Again, here’s an aspect ratio calculator online that is pretty straightforward than the one on the previous list. It helps you identify both the pixel dimensions and aspect ratios of the images and videos.
You’re only required to enter your inputs in Calculate and Preset tab to get Resolution as outcomes.
Pros
It can also be used to calculate pixel dimensions
Interactive user interface
No ads
Cons
Pretty confusing when it comes to entering Preset
03Toolstud Aspect Ratio Calculator
This aspect ratio calculator online is the simplest on our list as you’re only required to enter the Width-Height of an image or screen whose aspect ratio needs to be calculated.
Plus, the best part is that it gives you the detailed analysis of Calculation in terms of Size, Aspect Ratio, Angle of Diagonal, and Length of Diagonal etc.
Pros
Detailed calculation
Only needs to enter width and height
Simple user interface
Cons
A bit slow in processing
04Aspect Ratio Calculator
Again, this is the most straightforward aspect ratio calculator online with fewer complexities than others on the list. You must enter your desired width for an image or a video to get the outcome as an idea; height is a must to maintain that height.
Or, you can enter both the width and height to know the aspect ratio, dimensions, and mode.
Pros
Detailed calculation
Easy to calculate
A guide on how to use it
Cons
Slow user interface
05Calculator Online
You need to enter width and height within this tool and select among the common ratios to know the aspect ratio. However, it’s pretty unknown and confusing whether it’s applicable on both the images and videos or not.
Pros
Interactive user interface
With a guide on how to use
Various options
Cons
Display ads
Part 3 How Can I Change the Aspect Ratio of an Image Online?
You need to select among the aspect ratio calculator mentioned above online or go for the particular one for images.
Here, we’ll use Kapwing to resize the image dimensions within its editor.
Step 1: Visit Kapwing official website as follows
Go to https://www.kapwing.com/tools/resize-image
Step 2: Enter its editor
Now, you’re within its editor. Upload your image, which needs to change in terms of aspect ratio.

Part 1 Part 1: Typical Aspect Ratios and Sizes of Screens and Videos
An aspect ratio is a measurement representing the ratio between the width and height of a screen or a video. It determines the length of your video or screen. Not only screens and videos, but you can use the concept also in images.
And, it is written as ‘x:y’ where ‘x’ is the width and ‘y’ is the height.
There isn’t any one-size-fits-all when we need to use the video aspect ratios. Aspect ratios are generally selected based on where the video will post, how it will be visible, and what aim it usually serves.
Videos utilized for social media will vary from trailers shows or movies shown in theaters. There are common aspect ratios for modern televisions, but broadcasters can consider using the aspect ratio that operates great with their audience and content.
Since most videos showcase through standard online video platforms, custom aspect ratios are not commonly used.
Here are a few standard aspect ratios that you can use for live streaming and other video creation:
16:9
A 16:9 aspect ratio represents a wide rectangle. It is also called “1.71:1,” the most accessible form of the ratio, mathematically speaking.
This ratio is mainly used in video creation and streaming and is considered the international standard format for cinema and television.
Many also tend to use this highly famous aspect ratio on their sites.
It is also more cost-effective to use screens compatible with this ratio instead of their predecessors. The standardization of computer monitors and televisions saved producers both the money and time spent in the research field.
One of the ideal resolutions you can use with a 16:9 aspect ratio is 4Kor 3840 pixels by 2160 pixels.
1:1
The 1:1 video aspect ratio is one of the ideal squares used with square television sets.
It is much less in demand but usually visible on social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram.
Many cameras still have a square setting even though it’s not the most commonly used aspect ratio.
4:3
The 4:3 aspect ratio was the general screen size for computer monitors and televisions before 16:9 and 16:10. The reason for the switch was the HDTV birth. It’s because the 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios allow for better resolutions than 4:3 do.
This aspect ratio was still considered for Apple iPads until they released the 2018 iPad Pro.
3:2
The 3:2 aspect ratio was primarily seen in classic 35 mm still photography still used on tablets, laptops, and various game consoles in the handheld form.
Many micro- to medium-sized cameras still use the 3:2 aspect ratio settings, but broadcasters rarely use it today.
21:9
The 21:9 aspect ratios have a pretty specific purpose. It is often called cinematic widescreen or ultra-widescreen.
It is also helpful for films with an anamorphic format. Anamorphic format videos create an optical illusion that offers a 360-degree view.
You are likely to look for the videos with this aspect ratio in notable museums, theme parks, theaters, and the like.
9:16
A 9:16 aspect ratio is for tall videos. This aspect ratio became famous after the launch of smartphones with video capabilities.
For instance, the optimal measure for an Instagram story is 1080 px by 1920 px, and thus its ratio comes out as 9:16. The same goes for other famous apps with “story” features, including Snapchat and Facebook.
This makes sense because the iPhone camera’s video setting can record footage in both 16:9 and 9:16.
Part 2 How Do I Know the Aspect Ratio of My Video?
Most cameras with video capabilities are available with various aspect ratio settings. This helps you decide which aspect ratio you’d like your video to have before recording it.
If you are looking to determine the aspect ratio of a video already shot, you can easily access additional information for the file.
The information button is a small “i” in a circle on Mac. Move on to right-click a file and select “Properties“ on your PC.
It may give you the actual width and height of the video, but you can divide the two to find the aspect ratio.
However, you don’t need to hassle as we’ll enlist the best five aspect ratio calculators online below.

Top Picks: Finding the Ideal FLAC Conversion Tool
Ways to Totally Help Your Find Best Flac Converter
An easy yet powerful editor
Numerous effects to choose from
Detailed tutorials provided by the official channel
We have eight recommendations for you below that will allow you to pretty much do whatever you want (i.e., convert FLAC to MP3, convert FLAC to ALAC, convert WAV to FLAC, MP4 to FLAC, FLAC to MP4, M4A to FLAC, WAV to FLAC, and so much more.)
We’ve even included a handy general tutorial just after this to make sure that you’re able to easily make use of your chosen FLAC Converter.
In this article
01 [How to Convert FLAC to MP3 (Fast & Brilliant Way)](#Part 1)
02 [8 Best Free FLAC to MP3 Converter](#Part 2)
Part 1 How to Convert FLAC to MP3 (Fast & Brilliant Way)
As promised, we’ll be starting this off with a general tutorial that you can refer to when using the converters that we’ve listed below! The tool that we will be using for this step-by-step breakdown is an online FLAC Converter called FreeConvert. We did not include it on our list just to make sure that you have the most options possible, but it definitely deserves a spot of its own, since it is a free FLAC converter as well.
01Step 1: Open FLAC Converter!
To start things off, you need to either launch (if it’s software) or open (a.i., open the website for an online converter) your chosen FLAC Converter.
Once you’ve got your FLAC Converter all revved up. The first true step is the ‘UPLOAD’ step. This is when you use the upload features provided to prepare the FLAC audio that you want to convert.
For the tool we use for our example, you can do it in one of two ways:
● Upload Manually: Either from your device, from Dropbox, from Google Drive, or through a URL link.
● Drag-and-Drop: Simply drag and then drop the FLAC audio for conversion.
Here’s a link to FreeConvert in case you wanted to try it out for yourself:
02Step 2: Confirm Output Format!
For our example, we’ll be converting from FLAC to MP3. And so, when prompted to choose the desired output format, we choose “MP3”!
(Most converters will have multiple audio file formats and video file formats that you can convert to if you want to do something completely different — as is shown below):
03Step 3: (Optional) Advanced Settings
Before finishing up, you might want to explore the extra advanced settings offered by your chosen FLAC Converter! Each one will have different features.
FreeConvert, as an example, will allow you to adjust volume, add fade-in, add fade-out, reverse audio, and, even, trim audio before conversion! All you have to do to access these functions is to click the “SETTINGS” icon (pointed out in the image).
04Step 4: Convert FLAC to MP3
To initiate the actual conversion with FreeConvert, all you really need to do is click the ‘Convert to MP3’ button. Other FLAC converters, while not the same, should be similar.
05Step 5: Download Converted FLAC Audio!
Finally, when the conversion has been completed, select the ‘Download MP3’ button to save your converted audio to your PC! That’s it, you’re done!
Part 2 8 Best Free FLAC to MP3 Converter
Now on to our list of the best free FLAC Converter options out there. We have eight of them for you to choose from, each unique from the other to make sure that you can find the one that suits your current need or project the most.
01****Wondershare Filmora Video Editor **
Compatibility: Windows & Mac OS
What’s New: More Video Editing Solutions!
Rating and Reviews: 5/5

Filmora is the first software on this list of FLAC converter options. As you’ll no doubt glean from the screenshot of the UI that we included, this isn’t really your average FLAC converter. But that’s why we included it! With Filmora Pro, not only will you get the FLAC converting functions that you’re looking for, but you’ll also get many other features.

Key Takeaways from This Episode
● Need a quick and easy way to convert from FLAC to MP3? How about WAV to FLAC? Whether you’re converting from or to FLAC, this article has made sure to give you options!
● Most FLAC converters, you’ll find, work much the same way (demonstrated in our tutorial in Part 1!)
● But, despite the similarities, there are multiple unique methods of converting from and to FLAC format that you can use! Hopefully, you’ll be able to find one that suits your project from the list that we provided in Part 2!)
We have eight recommendations for you below that will allow you to pretty much do whatever you want (i.e., convert FLAC to MP3, convert FLAC to ALAC, convert WAV to FLAC, MP4 to FLAC, FLAC to MP4, M4A to FLAC, WAV to FLAC, and so much more.)

Part 1 How to Convert FLAC to MP3 (Fast & Brilliant Way)
As promised, we’ll be starting this off with a general tutorial that you can refer to when using the converters that we’ve listed below! The tool that we will be using for this step-by-step breakdown is an online FLAC Converter called FreeConvert. We did not include it on our list just to make sure that you have the most options possible, but it definitely deserves a spot of its own, since it is a free FLAC converter as well.
01Step 1: Open FLAC Converter!
To start things off, you need to either launch (if it’s software) or open (a.i., open the website for an online converter) your chosen FLAC Converter.
Once you’ve got your FLAC Converter all revved up. The first true step is the ‘UPLOAD’ step. This is when you use the upload features provided to prepare the FLAC audio that you want to convert.
For the tool we use for our example, you can do it in one of two ways:
● Upload Manually: Either from your device, from Dropbox, from Google Drive, or through a URL link.
● Drag-and-Drop: Simply drag and then drop the FLAC audio for conversion.
Here’s a link to FreeConvert in case you wanted to try it out for yourself:
02Step 2: Confirm Output Format!
For our example, we’ll be converting from FLAC to MP3. And so, when prompted to choose the desired output format, we choose “MP3”!
(Most converters will have multiple audio file formats and video file formats that you can convert to if you want to do something completely different — as is shown below):
03Step 3: (Optional) Advanced Settings
Before finishing up, you might want to explore the extra advanced settings offered by your chosen FLAC Converter! Each one will have different features.
FreeConvert, as an example, will allow you to adjust volume, add fade-in, add fade-out, reverse audio, and, even, trim audio before conversion! All you have to do to access these functions is to click the “SETTINGS” icon (pointed out in the image).
04Step 4: Convert FLAC to MP3
To initiate the actual conversion with FreeConvert, all you really need to do is click the ‘Convert to MP3’ button. Other FLAC converters, while not the same, should be similar.
05Step 5: Download Converted FLAC Audio!
Finally, when the conversion has been completed, select the ‘Download MP3’ button to save your converted audio to your PC! That’s it, you’re done!
Part 2 8 Best Free FLAC to MP3 Converter
Now on to our list of the best free FLAC Converter options out there. We have eight of them for you to choose from, each unique from the other to make sure that you can find the one that suits your current need or project the most.
