    Solution

      The following explains the procedure for specifying a portion of an image to save as a separate image file.
      IMPORTANT
      • Editing is not possible for images shot at a resolution of [ ], or resized to [ ].
      • The position and shape of the operation buttons may differ according to the model you use.

      1. Press the <> button to enter Playback mode.

      2. Press the <MENU> button, and then choose [Cropping] on the [ ] tab.




      3. Press the <><> buttons to choose an image, and then press the <> button.






      4. Adjust the cropping area.
      A frame is displayed around the portion of the image to be cropped.



      The original image is shown in the upper left, and a preview of the image as cropped is shown in the lower right.
      • To resize the frame, move the zoom lever.
      • To move the frame, press the <><><><> buttons.
      • To change the frame orientation, press the <DISP.> button.
      • Faces detected in the image are enclosed in gray frames in the upper-left image. To crop the image based on this frame, turn the <> dial to switch to the other frame.
      • Press the <> button.



      5. Press the <><> buttons to choose [OK], and then press the <> button.
      The image is now saved as a new file.



      6. Press the <MENU> button. [Display new image?] is displayed.
      Press the <><> buttons to choose [Yes], and then press the <> button.



      The saved image is now displayed.
      NOTE
      • Images supported for cropping will have the same aspect ratio after cropping.
      • Cropped images will have a lower resolution than uncropped images.

      This completes the steps for specifying a portion of an image to save as a separate image file.
