When reviewing pictures that were taken vertical, they appear cropped or smaller in the lcd screen. How do I make them back to normal size?

you need to change the 'zoom' on the tv by the remote.
Normal mode frames the 4:3 video to the 16:9 picture area by displaying it in its original aspect ratio, with vertical gray or black bars on both sides of the screen. The disadvantage of this method is the fact that the image is small by virtue of not using the entire width of the screen. This is also known as the 4:3 mode.
Full mode Full mode horizontally stretches the 4:3 video evenly across the entire width of the screen. This is the proper mode to display anamorphic video. If used for standard aspect ratio video, everything on the screen will appear wider than normal. Contrast this with anamorphic video displayed without processing on a 4:3 display, in which people on the screen will appear taller than normal. This is also known as the 16:9 mode.
Zoom mode Zoom mode evenly stretches the picture both horizontally and vertically, until the picture fills the entire width of the screen. This crops out the top and bottom of the picture. This mode is used for letterboxed and open matte video.
14:9 mode Main article: 14:9
In 14:9 mode, the picture is magnified more than in Normal mode, but less than in Zoom mode, while retaining the original aspect ratio.
Wide Zoom mode Wide Zoom mode, also called Just mode, Horizon, or Smart Stretch, progressively stretches the picture horizontally, less in the middle and more on the edges. This allows normal aspect ratio video to be displayed across the entire width of the screen, with minimal cropping, and with much less of the unpleasing visual stretching effect of Full mode.

This solution is for windows 7

To make the text on your screen larger or smaller

Open Screen Resolution by clicking the the Start button, clicking Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and Personalization, clicking Adjust screen resolution.

Choose one of the following:

Smaller - 100% (default). This keeps text and other items at normal size.

Medium - 125%. This sets text and other items to 125% of normal size.

Larger - 150%. This sets text and other items to 150% of normal size. This option appears only if your monitor supports a resolution of at least 1200 x 900 pixels.

Click Apply.

To see the change, close all of your programs and then log off of Windows. This change will take effect the next time you log on.

The smaller picture is PNP called picture and picture.It can be set in to the menu setting.Go to menu setting and search the PNP code.Try to off or diable the PNP menu setting to back the normal single picture.

Glad to be of service.

You can use Microsoft Paint to reduce the physical size/crop your picture, or you can use a program called Winsoftmagic to reduce the physical size of JPEG pictures without cropping.

I talked to a Samsung support helpline and it needs to be taken to a service center for repair.

Call 323-767-6030 and I will go through with you.

With the camera in Playback mode (reviewing pictures you have already taken), press the DISP button until the LCD shows what you want -- no information, basic information, or full shooting information.

Make sure you dont have picture cropping on in your settings. If you do, it will crop about an inch or more off all sides of your picture.

I have solved the problem with an empiricist method:
I take off the battery.
I unscrew all the visible screw ( be careful to the varius size and position)
I take away the back part ( the one with "10X" printed)
I separate of little millimeters the two side of the boby, but i don't try to completely open the machine.
I insert the 4 battery an try to turn on .
Without a logic explanation the lcd open again .
Peraphs the 2,3 millimeters of space let the pastic cover to be unlocked.
I screw all the screw and the machine is all right again!
I know i'm very lucky!

p.s. : sorry for my "italian" english
