a Crop: Creating a Cropped Copy
Create a copy containing only the portion visible in the monitor when u is
displayed with playback zoom (A 72) enabled. Cropped copies are stored as
separate files.
1 Rotate the zoom control to g (i) in full-frame
playback mode to zoom in on the image.
To crop a picture displayed in “tall” (portrait) orientation,
zoom in on the picture until the black bars displayed on
the both sides of the monitor disappear. The cropped
picture will be displayed in landscape orientation.
To crop the picture in its current “tall” (portrait)
orientation, first use the Rotate image option (A 94) to rotate the picture so that it is
displayed in landscape orientation. Next, enlarge the picture for cropping, crop the
picture, and then rotate the cropped picture back to “tall” (portrait) orientation.
2 Refine copy composition.
Rotate the zoom control to g (i) or f (h) to adjust the
zoom ratio.

picture until only the portion you want to copy is visible
in the monitor.
3 Press the d button.
4 Use the multi selector to choose Yes and
press the k button.
A cropped copy is created.

k button.

picture during playback, and the small picture icon
B or C is displayed at the left of the monitor in
