Resize Image to 1500×1000
1500×1000 is a 1.5-megapixel image in the 3:2 ratio — the same shape as the frame from most DSLR and mirrorless cameras. It's a popular size for portfolio galleries, blog header images, photo prints and presentation slides. This tool scales and crops any photo to exactly that size. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Need a smaller file instead? Compress or convert.
Drag the preview to choose which part of the image is kept. The same framing is used for every image in the batch.
Why choose 1500×1000?
1500×1000 gives a landscape canvas with a 3:2 ratio and 1.5 MP of detail. People most often need it for blog images, slides and landscape photos.
3:2 landscape shape
The 3:2 photo proportion decides how your photo is framed: plan the subject around that shape before you crop.
Where it is used
1500×1000 suits blog images, slides and landscape photos. Using the exact size avoids a website scaling or cropping your image on its own.
Prints 5×3.33 in at 300 DPI
That is 12.7×8.5 cm at photo quality, or 10×6.7 in at 150 DPI for posters viewed from a distance.
About 230 KB–470 KB as JPG
A typical photo at 1500×1000 saves to roughly 230 KB–470 KB at good JPG quality; WebP is usually 25–35% smaller.
Sharp results
A 12 MP phone photo has 8.1× more pixels than 1500×1000, so resizing down keeps it sharp.
Framing control
Filling 1500×1000 from a 4:3 phone photo trims about 11% of it. Drag the preview to choose what stays, or tick “Fit whole image inside instead of cropping” to keep it all.

What 1500×1000 is good for
1500×1000 is a 3:2 frame (1.5 : 1). That is the native shape of a full-frame or APS-C camera sensor and of the standard 4×6 and 6×9 inch print sizes, so photos from a camera usually convert with little or no cropping. Phone photos are typically 4:3, so expect to lose roughly 11% of the height; a 16:9 screenshot loses about a sixth of its width. This tool crops from the centre, so check the result if your subject sits near an edge, or trim it first with the cropper.
Web use: at 1.5 megapixels the image is sharp on most screens but still light. A JPG at this size is commonly a few hundred kilobytes, depending on how much detail the photo has. It works well for blog headers and gallery images. If you also need the file to be smaller, run it through the compressor afterwards.
Printing: at 300 DPI, 1500×1000 gives a print of 5×3.33 inches; at 200 DPI, 7.5×5 inches; at 150 DPI, 10×6.7 inches. That covers small prints and cards, but for anything larger start from a higher-resolution original, or use the 3000×3000 size.
Scaling up vs down: shrinking a large photo to 1500×1000 keeps it crisp, because you are only discarding detail. Enlarging a small image cannot add detail that was never captured, so the result will look soft. Always start from the largest original you have.
The tool also converts formats while it resizes: drop in a JPG, PNG, WebP or most other image types and choose the output you want, with no separate conversion step.
Frequently asked questions
What is the aspect ratio of 1500×1000?
It is 3:2 (1.5 to 1). This is the standard ratio of most DSLR and mirrorless cameras and of 4×6 inch prints, so camera photos fit it without much cropping. Phone photos are usually 4:3 and will lose a little from the top and bottom.
What aspect ratio is 1500×1000?
1500×1000 has a 3:2 photo aspect ratio. Any size with the same ratio — for example 1200×800, 1920×1200 — can be scaled to it without cropping.
How big will a 1500×1000 image print?
At 300 DPI (photo quality) 1500×1000 prints at 5×3.33 inches (12.7×8.5 cm). At 150 DPI it covers 10×6.67 inches, fine for posters seen from further away.
How large is a 1500×1000 file?
A photo at 1500×1000 is usually 230 KB–470 KB as a JPG, and about 160 KB–330 KB as WebP. If you need it smaller, run it through the compressor afterwards.
Will my photo lose quality at 1500×1000?
No — a normal phone photo is much larger, so it is scaled down and stays sharp.
Can I resize to 1500×1000 without cropping?
Yes. Tick “Fit whole image inside instead of cropping”: the whole picture is kept, but one side may come out shorter than 1500×1000. Without it, the image fills 1500×1000 exactly and the edges that do not fit the 3:2 shape are trimmed.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Resizing happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is transmitted or stored, and you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
