More about Photo 40x50 MM (4x5 Centimetres) - Requirements

Regarding the 40 x 50 milimetres photo

Depending on the document you want to apply for, the dimensions of the photo may be considerably different. Sometimes the simplest way is to choose a universal photograph in electronic version, from which you will be able to cut out any format you want, for example 40 x 50 mm. Our photo generator will help you with this, offering automatic cropping of uploaded photos. Ready and correctly prepared universal size photograph can be used as a photo for a specific document. You can get the photo on our website - Passport Photo Online or instead of using a photo generator visit the nearest photography studio, which offers taking pictures in 40 on 50 mm (4 on 5 cm) format. Definitely, however, this is a more time-consuming and more expensive solution. Therefore it's worth using photo framing tool.

Background of the 40 x 50 milimetres (4 by 5 centimetres) photo

Generally a photograph for a document should have a uniform background. The background colour itself may differ depending on the specific application. Generally, however, it is a bright background, often white (#ffffffff) or light grey (for example #f5f5f5), however, there may be a specific background requirement of light blue - #1292fa. With passport-photo.online cropping tool you can get a photograph with a uniform bright background. Just upload any photograph to the form above and our Background Removal Tool will do its job and you will get a photo on the perfectly bright background. Soon, there will also be an option to choose a specific background color. If you need it now, please contact us at [email protected]

40 x 50 milimetres Photo equivalents

The equivalents of a 40 x 50 milimetres size photograph are:

  • 4 x 5 cm photograph (i.e. photo's width 4 cm and height 5 cm)
  • 1,57 x 1,97 inches photo (i.e. photo's width 1,57 inches and height 1,97 inches)

Proportions of the electronic version of the 40 by 50 milimetres photograph

In the case of photos only in digital version, it is very important to maintain the right proportions, i.e. the ratio of the 40 milimetres width to the 50 milimetres height.

  • for dpi=100 resolution: 157 x 197 px (width = 157 pixels, and height 197 pixels)
  • for dpi=300 resolution: 471 x 591 px (width = 471 px, and height 591 pixels)
