but is Ultra PanaVision70 which is 2.76 to 1 (flying fingers got you Rico? I assume this was a typo) and even that is too narrow. My source is yours, the Widescreen Museum.
In fact, I had a special edition LaserDisk that claimed the actual ratio was more than 3 to 1. It certainly seemed it but I didn't pull out my yardstick.As for PanaVision and 1.85 to 1, you are technically correct. However PanaVision has become very closely associated in these latter days with 1.85 to 1, perhaps because of their support of matting (1.85:1) and their lenses for use in HDTV programming. I find the term PanaVision used increasingly to indicate 1.85 to 1, though it was not originally that ratio. PanaVision currently supports many formats as may be seen on their website.
