I am having a problem with my MOBI conversion

I am taking an epub created in Sigil and using Calibre to convert to MOBI.

I am viewing on a Gen 3. Kindle and also on a Brand New Kindle (the new basic model). The pics are MUCH smaller on the new model. I thought it was an issue with the new model having higher resolution, but a little research showed me I was wrong and that the old model and the new model have the same resolution.
Any idea what I can be doing wrong in the conversion? Does the new Kindle have some special needs in the Calibre conversion process?
Here is a side/side pic of the two Kindles showing the size issue.
Any help will be much appreciated.
