I can't tell exactly from the pics, but it's a JVC of some description (great choice ;)) so you should be able to zoom/shift electronically? On some models you can set up profiles for these settings so you'd have a 16:9 profile and a 2.35:1 profile (and a 1.85:1 and 2.40:1 profile if you want to go full nerd). I think some newer models can actually do content detection and change profiles accordingly aswell (or maybe this is only Panasonics?).

Be careful when setting up the profiles because all it does is record your zoom/shifting like a macro. So if you take a million steps to get it just right back and forth it will reproduce all that jiggery :p. At least this is how it used to be, I've not used a current model but had an X3.

Yes you can save profiles and have it go between the two, and it zooms in/out shifts around - it doesn't seem too logical so possibly was recalling the steps I took :) I did have 16:9 and 2.35:1 profiles - but the video processor does away with that need, other than this resolution thing.

Calibration continues tomorrow, so will think on that.

Ok scrolled back and saw it's a 9500! Wow nice kit. Anyway the bit your interested in is Page 24 in the manual, and it looks like it's no longer macro driven so you should have fairly quick transitions between the lens profiles. I can't see anything in there about content detection so maybe that's still Panasonic only?

Oh ok, cool. The video processor actually can handle auto-switching - but yes I think i'll want to have this setup with the JVC adjusting lens each time.
 
I got an Amazon Fire 8 HD, so I'd have something a bit more dedicated than my phone for stuff.
