RECORDING – BASIC SETTINGS (PICTURE)
EN
The settings described in this chapter only apply for picture mode.
They are therefore part of the picture menu and must always be
accessed and configured from within picture mode (see chapter
"Camera operation" in the section "Menu Control"). Any menu items
of the same name in the video menu are entirely independent of
these.

SENSOR FORMAT

The picture data of the entire 35 mm sensor can be used or only a
cropped section, which corresponds to the APS-C format. This can
be helpful, e.g. when only limited storage capacity remains or a
lens developed specifically for APS-C is used.
The max. available resolution is dependent on the setting of the
sensor format.
