3.5×5 cm vs 3.5×4.5 cm

At 300 DPI, 3.5×5 cm is 413 × 591 pixels — the same width as the common 3.5×4.5 cm photo, but half a centimetre taller.

Don't mix them up. A 3.5×4.5 photo stretched to 3.5×5 would squash the face; a 3.5×5 photo trimmed to 3.5×4.5 might cut the chin. Use the size your form asks for.

In millimetres this is 35×50 mm: see the 35×50 mm page.

Framing. With the extra height, leave a clear gap above the hair and show the top of the shoulders.
