Cropping to 4:5 from
45%

A centred crop from 16:9 to 4:5 keeps 45% of the width. Blur fill or bars keep the whole picture instead.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Choose a ratio

    Tap a common one such as 4:5 or 9:16, or type any ratio like 5:4 or 2.35:1.

  2. Step 2

    Type the side you know

    Width or height in pixels. The other side appears instantly, rounded to even numbers for video if you want.

  3. Step 3

    Check the crop

    See how much of a 16:9 or 9:16 source a centred crop to your ratio keeps before you edit.

How to calculate an aspect ratio

To find a height from a width, multiply the width by the second number of the ratio and divide by the first: 4:5 at 1080 wide is 1080 × 5 ÷ 4 = 1350. To find the ratio of a size, divide both sides by their greatest common divisor: 1920 by 1080 divides by 120 into 16:9.

Video encoders usually need even dimensions, so round to the nearest even number. The calculator does this when the box is ticked.

Which ratio the platforms accept

Checked on each platform’s own help pages. To turn a video into the ratio you picked, use the free video resizer.

  • Instagram accepts reels at any ratio from 1.91:1 to 9:16, at least 720 pixels and 30 frames a second.
  • YouTube calls 16:9 the standard on a computer, and treats uploads that are square or vertical and up to three minutes long as Shorts.
  • Facebook supports video from 16:9 to 9:16.

Everything you need to know before you start.

1080 by 1350 at 1080 wide, the usual size for Instagram and Facebook feed posts. Larger sizes are 1440 by 1800 and 2160 by 2700.

1080 by 1920 at 1080 wide, the size for Reels, Shorts and TikTok. Smaller is 720 by 1280; 4K vertical is 2160 by 3840.

16:9. Divide both sides by 120, their greatest common divisor, and you get 16 by 9.

Multiply the width by the second number of the ratio and divide by the first. For 4:5 at 1080 wide: 1080 × 5 ÷ 4 = 1350.

About 32% of the width. Cropping 16:9 to 4:5 keeps 45%, and to 1:1 keeps 56%. Blur fill or bars keep the whole picture instead.
