Questions and answers
I have a Canon SC 730 HS. Some setting got change on my camera yesterday and i cannot figure out how to change it back. When I would take photos, the display and resulting photo had a wider display and printed wider. Now it seems like it is cropping off the sides on every photo i take. What setting do i need to do to restore the original size.
