Re: Petition Fuji, give us 4:3, 5:4, and 6:7 aspect ratios on X-series cameras

Wow this went hostile fast...sometimes I feel a bit of offense from the "I shoot only raw and you can do everything in post crowd"...do whatever makes you happy. I did a lot of post...now I only do jpegs. It's both alright ... tolerance...

I think it is a great idea. Many people like to use the film recipes and being able to actually see the aspect ratio in the EVF would be great. Also any kind of frame or guide lines would be fitted to the chosen aspect ratio.

I mean cameras have so many "useless" functions. For me personally they could disable all the video stuff...but people like to use video. Also a focus limiter or snap focus function seems pretty specialized but some people use it and it got included in some cameras. And who in heavens name uses the option to produce smaller resolution images? Until I shot a whole bunch of pics for ebay and they don't really like 24Mp 16MB files...so I actually used that function.

Camera devices are such multifunctional tools nowadays it seems almost pointless to discuss the merit of available software functions. Someone will use them and if it is a cheap option to add in software then why not? (Well ... cluttered menus would be an argument though

So I signed but I very much doubt it will have an effect.
