Thanks, Boyd. I know it's a user option, I just wanted some reassurance that if I selected the zoom (or fullscreen) 16:9 mode that I will get my original picture I shot, no resolution loss (scaled up) or cropping.

If a user selects the zoom option then it definitely will scale the image, as well as distorting and cropping it. The 4:3 option won't lose any resolution, but it will be distorted (everything will be too tall and thin). But there really isn't anything you can do about this when authoring a DVD.
