Selecting the image size to match the usage
The image size determines the size of the image file that is recorded when you take a
image.
The larger the image size, the more detail will be reproduced when the image is printed
on large-format paper. The smaller the image size, the more images can be recorded.
Select the image size that matches the way you will view your images.
• When you print images shot with 16:9 aspect ratio, both edges may be cut off.
