Changing the trimming after recording
With the LEICA DIGILUX 1 you can change the
trimming of pictures you have already saved at a
later date. This trimming makes it possible to
remove less important areas at one or more of
the edges or to make the main subject more
prominent, thereby optimising the composition of
the picture.
However, the following must be taken into
account:
If the (originally smaller) trimming is subsequently
made as large as the original picture, this always
means a simultaneous reduction in the resolution,
as a lower number of pixels has to cover the same
area.
Note:
Trimming is not possible for video recordings,
pictures saved in TIFF format, pictures with a
sound recording and pictures with a resolution
of 640 x 480 pixels and those saved on other devi-
ces.
Setting the function:
1. Select the desired picture as described in the
section “Reviewing single pictures” on p.155 in
points 1 and 2.
2. Press the
MENU button (1.27).
3. Select the n TRIMMING function in the
menu by pressing (7x) down on the direction
pad (1.29).
