Summary: Has several image zoom settings specific to film formats, e.g. cinemascope, and can optionally display 2:35 panavision anamorphic widescreen dvd's with the full vertical resolution and filling the screen vertically with only some of the sides cropped -- giving the same height image on a 32" set as on a 40". It can also magnify the stretched image (rare to combine both stretch and zoom). Widescreen TV's typically display panavision with horizontal black bars totalling 1/3 the height of the screen due to extreme width of format even when stretched to the screen sides. I haven't found these zoom settings on any other player. The format is also on panasonic tv's, but only for a 720p input still needing an upconverting player. Dig in the menus and find even more formatting than on the remote "zoom" key.
