displayed and no value will be recorded. Correct the problem and repeat the process from
Step 1.

Setting the image aspect

Depending on your preference, you can set the aspect ratio to [4:3] (standard), [16:9],
[3:2], [1:1], or [3:4].

Cautions

• JPEG images are cropped to the selected aspect ratio; RAW images, however, are not

cropped but are instead saved with information on the selected aspect ratio.

• When RAW images are played back, the selected aspect ratio is shown by a frame.
