11.2 Configure the settings relating to the aspect ratio [JPEG/H.264] (SW355, SW352, SF346, SF342, SF336, SF335, SF332, SW316L, SW316, SW314, SP306, SP305, SP302, SW155, SW152, SF135, SF132, SP105, SP102)
Note
SW155, SW152, SF135, SF132, SP105, and SP102 do not support MPEG-4.
Click the [JPEG/H.264] tab on the “Image/Audio” page. (→9.1 How to display the setup menu, 9.2 How to operate the setup menu)
[Aspect ratio]
Select “4:3” or “16:9” for the aspect ratio.
Default: 4:3
Note
Aspect ratio of 16:9 is unavailable for the MPEG-4 images.
When selecting “16:9” for “Aspect ratio”, “H.264” is automatically set for “Video encoding format”.
Image adjustment functions are activated for the angle of view in the aspect ratio of 4:3 even while “16:9” is being selected for “Aspect ratio”. When setting the mask area for the back light compensation (BLC) function, it is recommended to configure the setting after selecting “4:3” for “Aspect ratio”.
When “On” is selected for “VIQS” and the setting value for “Aspect ratio” is changed from “4:3” to “16:9”, make sure that the VIQS setting value does not exceed the maximum designated range.
:
Area masking under the backlight compensation (BLC) function can be set only when the aspect ratio is “4:3”. If the aspect ratio is changed to “16:9” after setting the backlight compensation function, the mask area setting is maintained.
