50KB is a very tight target — usually required for passport-size photos, ID documents or certain Indian government portals. Use WebP or JPEG at 40–55% quality with a max dimension of 800px to reliably hit the mark.
PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP, HEIC up to 50MB per file
Choose filesThe two main levers are quality (lower = smaller) and resolution (max dimension). Start at quality 50% and 800px max. If the result is still too large, drop quality to 40% or reduce max dimension further. WebP typically gives 20–30% smaller files than JPEG at the same visual quality.
Yes, but it will be downscaled. A 12MP photo at 800px max dimension is roughly 0.5MP — perfectly sharp on screen, just not suitable for printing larger than a passport photo.
Yes — KB (kilobytes), Ko (kilo-octets in French) and KB in common usage all refer to 1000 bytes. Some systems use KiB (kibibytes = 1024 bytes) but the difference at 50KB is negligible for image uploads.
