Hello, there's not a dedicated button, but you can change the aspect ratio through the setup menu. The different ratios are called modes in the menu -- normal mode, wide mode, etc. You can see all the different modes and which aspect ratios they correspond to starting on page 47 of the user manual. (If you don't have the user manual, you can download it here.)
