Low Resolution 16:9 Canvas Sizes

This post was last updated June 2023. Computer hardware changes, and this note may not be up to date.

A table of low resolution 16:9 canvas sizes that scale by integer factors to common desktop and TV display sizes.

A few canvas sizes in the table won’t scale to 6K, but 6K monitors aren’t that common, so I’m including them anyway.

Whether using a fixed 16:9 canvas size is the right solution is a different question; what about laptop, tablet, or mobile screens?
