PSA, High FPS effect on image area

Some of you may have already run across this, it was new to me. I've been playing around with pre-release capture on my Z8. This morning, about halfway through a backyard shoot, I thought I would see what difference it makes to go from 30 to 60 fps. Later on, I happened to notice that my display was flashing DX, despite having an FX lens attached. I cycled the power, reset the lens, and checked the menu option for image area, to no avail. I came in and downloaded the images, and sure enough the files were DX size. I had a flash of inspiration and switched it back to 30 FPS, and voila, I was back in FX mode. It makes sense that to get the insanely high FPS available, they might need to force options to achieve smaller file sizes for the highest rates.

Manuals, we don't need no stinking manuals!

OK, maybe I do.
