Best Answer

This is largely for practical reasons and for the same reason that windows are usually rectangular; it easier to make rectangular frames for canvases and rectangular picture frames.

Why are digital camera lenses round but pictures square?

Camera lenses must be round to focus light properly. Close one eye and you will notice you see a circular "picture" of the world. Two eyes placed side-by-side gives the impression you are seeing a rectangular view but you are seeing two circles overlapping. Rectangular areas of the film were placed next to each other to maximize the amount of pictures a roll of film could hold. Now that roll film is no longer used rectangular pictures still replicate our perception of vision.
