How to use this tool

  1. Enter width, height.
  2. Select Calculate to view the result.
  3. Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.

The method, explained

Megapixels = width × height/1,000,000.

A WORKED EXAMPLE

Using width = 6000, height = 4000, the result is 24 MP. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.

What to keep in mind

An ideal geometric or exposure estimate. Lens behavior, stabilization, sensor crop and scene conditions may change practical results.
