So if desired the photog can just ensure that the files fit exactly into those containers for best quality reproduction. You can crop for proportions or just match the longest dimension. For a 3:2 that would mean a little blank space at two edges. The book will be in landscape format. "If you are obsessive, then you might want to know sRGB, 300DPI. The verso page full bleed is 2888 x 2475 and the recto page is 2271 x 1588 (which leaves room for a caption underneath)."
