I think he's said that any version would have to crop at least a little bit of the picture for stabilization purposes?

I did another cropping estimate, this time against one of -1's high-resolution images from the color timing thread. First, here's what the GOUT looks like (or more specifically, DJ's V3):

Now here's the GOUT area traced into -1's high-res image of the same scene, scaled down to fit in this page, and with the 95% height adjustment to correct the proportions of the image (thanks You_Too for pointing that out in the colortiming thread). Right click "view image" to see it at full size.

As you can see, there's a decent amount more on the sides of -1's image, and a sliver more on the bottom, though the GOUT has a tiny bit more on the top (which is why the red box has no top edge - that area is not visible in -1's example image).

I think that the framing of -1's images from the colortiming thread is good. There's nothing wrong with it being cropped a little bit less than the official releases. Although, with the 95% height correction, it's obvious that -1's version is wider than 2.35:1, closer to about 2.50:1.

Here's -1's screenshot, with the proportions adjusted, and then cropped to 2.39:1.

And here's the same image with my GOUT framing estimate.

As far as the sides go, the cropping just about matches GOUT. I'd maybe open the picture up a little bit more on all four sides. At least, as much as possible without showing the black borders.

I do agree there should be a version that is as close to uncropped as possible, it's fun to see that extra image.

EDIT: none pointed out that DJ's V3 crops off a few pixels, so here's the same shot as seen in the official GOUT:

The GOUT is actually cropped a teeny tiny bit less than I've been assuming from the V3. It's a very, very, VERY small difference, but nevertheless, I'll take this into account and work from the official GOUT in my future comparisons.
