I don’t know why it should make a difference, but after hours of experimenting and hair pulling I discovered that images that filled the page from margin to margin got cut off, but if I reduced them to 70% of that width, they would display properly. You can determine the width of the text block by selecting your text frame and checking the width in the control panel. Then multiply that by .7. That can make some images pretty tiny, but your readers can always tap on the image for an enlarged version.
Is it a Kindle problem or an InDesign problem? Kindle readers should automatically scale images to fit whatever screen size you have, but they don’t always do it. I have an old Kindle Fire that displays images just fine. I have a new Kindle Fire that cuts them off on the right if I don’t resize the images.
