Can 48 megapixel photos be captured at 16:9 or only 4:3? When I go into settings for other resolutions, there are options for both aspect ratios, but only 4:3 for 48 megapixels. Thanks for any help.

I would recommend you to always shoot with the 4:3 option. You can always crop the image as you wish in post. If you use the 16:9 setting, it will still practically take the same 4:3 shot, but it will crop it. So using the 16:9 -setting you will only limit your options in post.

48 Mp is the full sensor size at 4:3 ratio, 8000 x 6000 pixels. 16:9 ratio is a crop from the full size, so about 8000 x 4500 pixels.
If you have it set for 16:9, it will only save that part of the data. If you shoot 4:3, then you can decide how to crop later.
