Does this upload my photo to a server?

No. The crop runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image data never leaves your device, so the tool works offline once the page is loaded and there's no privacy risk.

Which cameras shoot 3:2 by default?

Most DSLRs and mirrorless cameras with full-frame, APS-C, or Micro Four Thirds sensors default to 3:2 (Sony A-series, Canon R / EOS, Nikon Z / D, Fujifilm X). Phones default to 4:3 instead, which is why phone photos look different.

Is 3:2 the same as 6×4 inch print?

Yes. The standard 6×4 inch (or 4×6 inch portrait) photo print uses 3:2 - that's why the ratio's so common in photography. 8×12 inch and 12×18 inch prints also use 3:2.

Will I lose quality after cropping?

No. Cropping is a pure pixel-removal operation - the kept pixels stay byte-identical. JPG re-encoding can introduce minor compression, so we encode at high quality (≥0.92) by default.

Does this resize the image too?

No - this tool only crops. The output keeps the pixel resolution of the cropped region. To resize after cropping, use our resize tool or open the result in the AI editor.
