Compress Image to 800KB

Upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP to compress it to 800KB in your browser. 800KB is a reasonable target for high-resolution photography exports, large-format web images, and file-sharing situations where you need to reduce a multi-megabyte camera file while preserving near-original quality.

800KB in context

800KB sits at the high end of the web image range. For a typical blog post with multiple images, 800KB per image would add up to serious page weight — three images at 800KB each means 2.4MB of images alone. But for a single focal image — a hero, a portfolio piece, or a print-quality reference — 800KB gives you strong quality without the 5–25MB of an unoptimised camera file.

Camera manufacturers now routinely produce 24–50 megapixel sensors, and a JPEG export from a professional mirrorless camera at full size typically runs 8–20MB. Compressing to 800KB reduces that by 90%+ while keeping quality acceptable for all digital uses and most light print uses. For high-quality print, you'd stay closer to the original; for digital delivery and web publishing, 800KB is well within the range where quality holds up.

800KB for file-sharing and client delivery

When sending photos to clients via email or a file-sharing link, 800KB per image keeps a 10-image set under 8MB total — safely within email attachment limits and fast to download on a standard broadband connection. Clients who need to review, crop, or make light colour adjustments to your photos will appreciate a file that retains enough data to survive one round of editing and re-export without obvious quality degradation.
