Set the slideshow aspect ratio and crop
Determining the aspect ratio of the slideshow is the rst setting you need to address. Aperture
slideshows can be output at aspect ratios that match either the main or secondary display, the
dimensions of a standard 4:3 or 16:9 widescreen TV, or the 3:2 aspect ratio of iPhone.
For some themes, you can also choose how photos appear within the slideshow aspect ratio. For
example, you can have photos t within the frame without cropping, or you can have photos ll
the frame, which might cause cropping. You can also apply the Ken Burns eect, which zooms in
