Compress Product Photos for Amazon
Cut file size so listings load fast — while keeping the resolution Amazon's zoom feature needs. Free, in your browser, nothing uploaded.
Amazon image basics
Amazon recommends product images be at least 1600px on the longest side so the zoom feature activates, and the main image should sit on a pure white background. The trap: high-resolution photos straight from a camera or phone are often huge files that slow your listing. The goal is to keep enough resolution for zoom while compressing the file so it loads quickly.
Recommended settings
- Max dimensions: keep the longest side at ~1600–3000px (don't go below 1600px, or zoom may not trigger).
- Format: JPG for maximum compatibility (or WebP for your own site).
- Quality: ~80 keeps fine product detail while trimming size.

Frequently asked questions
What size should Amazon images be?
At least 1600px on the longest side to enable zoom (up to 10000px allowed). Keep ~1600–3000px and compress the file so it loads fast.
Will compressing hurt quality?
Not visibly at quality ~80. Just don't shrink the longest side below 1600px, so zoom still works.
