4:5 Cropping Tips
Photo print cropping (4:5) targets the most common photo print sizes: 4×6, 5×7, and 8×10. Most digital cameras shoot in 3:2 ratio, which matches 6×4 (4×6) perfectly but requires cropping for 4×5 or 5×7. When cropping from 3:2 to 4:5, you lose about 17% of the width — make sure your subject isn't clipped at the edges.
Orientation tip: For portrait orientation, rotate the ratio mentally — 4×5 portrait means taller than wide. After cropping, resize to the print lab's recommended DPI (usually 300 DPI) to avoid soft prints. A 4×6 print at 300 DPI needs 1200×1800 pixels minimum.
