G'Day Red Ochre, thanks soo much for replying so soon, and I will do some crop and stretch if the images allow.
I re-set my camera to 3:2 and when I start using my new Lumix have the multi-aspect ratio option that saves images
in 4 ratios.
Today I experimented with basically what you suggested, and where it isnt possible to crop & or stretch I made the canvas
size for a 3:2 and then made the image smaller, hence big borders but looks aesthetically better than a couple of strips down the
edges. Having been an avid slr user with 35mm film, I am accustomed to framing the finished pic at the time of taking, so the original composition
is important. I have googled a search for print labs that have 6 x 4.5" paper but cant find anything in Australia. Would make it easier to just
get them printed on a 4:3 paper format eh? Thanks, Cheers, Woll
