And it's not hard to adjust your scene code to match the camera to the 
screen size:

camera {
   direction vForward*sZoomValue
   right vRight*image_width/image_height
   up vUp
   location pCameraLocation
}

Now the only problem with a change to the aspect ration is the problem 
of making sure that the scenery covers the edges of the image when I 
change the aspect ration.
