Looks like I have my notifications turned off. <duh> I figured this would be a pretty strange question, Oh'well. I've been shooting since the 60's but rarely printed anything. When I did they were slides or medium format proof sheets. I shot Nikon and Canon 35mm and medium format (Pentax 6x7, 67). Anyway the cameras I have nowadays digital wise are; an old Canon ID Mark II, Panasonic GH1, GH3 (4:3), Fujifilm X100, Nikon D700. My kids have been bugging me forever for some prints and the reason for the small gallery I setup below. I usually ignore them but finally broke down. In all these years I've never thought about how the images would be cropped since I rarely made hard copies of anything.<BR><BR>

I've always framed and composed my shots in the camera's viewport or LCD as I would want them printed. It never even entered my mind what size I 'actually' wanted them 'someday' to be printed while shooting. Of course the aspect ratio of the particular camera wasn't considered as well. I suppose my logic was if I were to sit down and compose and paint a landscape (or whatever) I wouldn't paint the scene I wanted to convey and then crop it sometime in the future. Now that I know that's incorrect I was simply wondering if some sort of camera crop window existed. I have the Katz focus screen on my D700 and on other cameras I've owned in the past, especially since I have a lot of old quality glass. <BR><BR>
