"6K PHOTO" is a high-speed burst recording function which allows you to save
pictures extracted from images recorded with an aspect ratio for still pictures,
4:3 or 3:2, and with an effective picture size equivalent to a particular number of
pixels (approx. 18 megapixels) produced by images with a size of 6K (approx.
6,000 (horizontal)3,000 (vertical)).
