About the 40 x 50 mm photo

The requirements for documentary photographs can be different, especially in terms of size and framing. If you want to get a professional photograph that is suitable for various documents, generally the easiest solution is to choose a universal photograph with pre-set size. E.g., for a given format: 40 x 50 mm - meaning 4 on 5 centimetres, you can use the cropping tool available on our page. In a few seconds we would adapt your photograph to the requirements of the office or institution. Thanks to this easy procedure, you will save time and money on searching for a photography studio who will take professional documentary photos in the size you need. Not always at a photography studio there is the possibility to print photos having dimensions of 40 on 50 mm or 4 x 5 cm, so, using cropping tool with option of automatic framing may be the best solution.

40 x 50 mm (4 by 5 cm) Photograph background

Generally a photograph for a document should have a uniform background. The background colour itself can vary depending on the specific document. Often, however, it is a bright background, generally white (#ffffffff) or light grey (for example #fcfcfc), nonetheless, there can be a specific background requirement of light blue colour - #1292fa. With passport-photo.online photo generator tool you can get a photograph with a uniform bright background. Just upload any photo to the form above and our Background Removal Tool will do its job and you will get a photo on the perfect bright background. Soon, there will also be an option to choose a specific background color. If you need it now, please contact us at support@passport-photo.online.

40 x 50 mm Photograph equivalents

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

  • 4 x 5 centimetres photo (i.e. photo's width 4 centimetres and height 5 centimetres)
  • 1,57 x 1,97 inches photograph (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 digital form photos only, it is important to maintain the right proportions, i.e. the ratio of the 40 mm width to the 50 milimetres height. Depending on the resolution (dpi) of the printout, these can be considerably different in sizes expressed in pixels (px). E.g., these may be sizes:

  • for dpi=100 resolution: 157 on 246 px (width = 157 pixels, and height 246 px)
  • for dpi=300 resolution: 471 on 739 px (width = 471 px, and height 739 pixels)
  • for dpi=600 resolution: 942 on 1479 px (width = 942 pixels, and height 1479 px)
