@Notjohn...

"The vast majority of my images are 800 pixels wide, and I include a width="100%" instruction in the html. There is no problem with the older Kindle devices because their ruling motto is to enlarge all images to full width anyhow. "

The OP's problem really has nothing to do with only ever using full width or max page images throughout your epub as you suggest. So your suggestion of always loading all epub images as width="100%" -- as full page/screen size images -- is really not a solution at all and is quite irrelevant, since most people on this thread have been talking about the problem of accurately loading ebook images with dimensions that are all less than max page size. An example, to help your own apparent misunderstanding, is how would you accurately format a small logo-size image in your epub that is not width="100%" and not max page size so that it's dimensions are rendered and displayed as accurately as possible on all Kindle KF7 and KF8 devices?? That's the problem that is currently being discussed on this thread.
