Setting the aspect ratio
Aspect ratio is the ratio of the width and the 
height of the picture. This camera gives you 
three aspect ratios to choose from.
• j
 
• 
 
• h
• You cannot shoot motion pictures in the 
[
] aspect ratio.
• Depending on the aspect ratio setting, the 
edges of the picture may be cut off when 
printing. Try the following to see whether 
you can print without cutting the edges off. 
–Some photography shops can handle 
pictures shot in the [
j
] aspect ratio. 
Enquire before sending them for printing.
–If your printer has trimming and border 
settings, change the settings so that 
there is no trimming and no border. 
(Read your printer’s operating 
instructions.)
