Hi. I'd like to know that if I set 1:1 aspect on my GX7 and shoot raw+jpg, is there a way to access the uncropped 4:3 image? Have tried to search but I haven't found anything that works on either SilkyPix or ACR. Found the DNG recover edges plugin in AdobeLabs but AFAIK it requires Lightroom. Actually they state that it doesn't work with Panasonic cameras because the cropped areas are irretrievably lost even in raw. Can anyone confirm whether this is true?

With RAW files from the GX9, reverting from square shape to the full 5184*3888 image in Lightroom is simple - just click "Reset" as soon as you've got the file open in the Develop module.

Odd that they didn't set all previous models (except those that actually shoot different areas - LX7, LX100 etc etc) to work that way, but - to be honest - I prefer shooting to the full sensor area, and then choosing my own crop!
