Cropping JPEG Images

You can crop a captured JPEG image and save it as another image. Cropping an image is possible only with JPEG images. Cropping is not available for HEIF or RAW images, or for frame-grab images from 4K movies.

  2. Select an image.

    • Turn the Quick Control Dial dial to select the image to crop.
    • Press SET to display the cropping frame.
  3. Set the cropping frame.

    • The image area within the cropping frame will be cropped.
    • Resizing the cropping frame size

      Turn the Main Dial dial to resize the cropping frame size. The smaller the cropping frame, the more magnified the cropped image will look.

    • Changing the cropping frame aspect ratio and orientation

      Turn the Quick Control Dial dial to change the cropping frame aspect ratio and orientation.

    • Moving the cropping frame

      Use Multi-controller to move the cropping frame vertically or horizontally.

    • Correcting tilt

      You can correct image tilt by ±10°. Press the INFO button. While checking tilt relative to the grid, turn the Quick Control Dial dial (in 0.1° increments) or tap the left or right arrow (in 0.5° increments) in the upper left of the screen to correct tilt. After completing the tilt correction, press SET.

  4. Check the image area to be cropped.

    • Press the Q (Quick Control) button. The image area to crop is displayed.
  5. Save the image.

    • Press SET and select [OK] to save the cropped image.
    • Check the destination folder and image file number, then select [OK].
    • To crop another image, repeat steps 2 to 5.

Caution

  • The position and size of the cropping frame may change depending on the angle set for tilt correction.
  • Once a cropped image is saved, it cannot be cropped again or resized.
  • AF point display information () and Dust Delete Data () will not be appended to the cropped images.
  • Available aspect ratios vary depending on whether you use [Playback: Cropping] or [Custom Functions7: Add cropping information].
