Cropping JPEG/HEIF Images

You can crop a captured JPEG image and save it as another image. Cropping is available for JPEG or HEIF images. RAW images and frame-grab images from 4K or 8K movies cannot be cropped.

  1. Select [Playback: Cropping] ().

  2. Select an image.

    • Turn the Quick control dial 1 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 Quick control dial 2 dial to resize the cropping frame size. The smaller the cropping frame, the more magnified the cropped image will look.

    • Correcting tilt

      You can correct image tilt by ±10°. Turn the Quick control dial 1 dial to select [Tilt correction], then press SET. While checking tilt relative to the grid, turn the Quick control dial 1 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.

    • Changing the cropping frame aspect ratio and orientation

      Turn the Quick control dial 1 dial and select [Aspect ratio settings]. Each press of SET changes the cropping frame aspect ratio and orientation.

    • Moving the cropping frame

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

  4. Check the image area to be cropped.

    • Turn the Quick control dial 1 dial to select [Area selection], then press SET. The image area to crop is displayed.
  5. Save.

    • Turn the Quick control dial 1 dial to select [Save and exit], then press SET.
    • Select [OK] to save the cropped image.
    • To upscale images that will be cropped, so that they will be saved at a higher resolution, press the INFO button, then set [Deep-learning upscaling] to [Enable] ().

      • The current [Deep-learning upscaling] setting (enable/disable) is retained even after cropping, when you select other images. To change the setting, press the INFO button again.
      • The resulting image size after upscaling is shown to the right of [Deep-learning upscaling].
      • Image processing may take some time.
      • Shooting is not possible until processing is finished.
    • 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 Functions: Add cropping information].
