Image Size differs from file size when checking the hidden meta information of a picture, photo or another image file. Find out what this meta key can tell you about your file.

When going through the metadata of an image file, you may come across information labeled as Image Size. This information should not be confused with the file size. However, the Image Size does play a role when determining the size of a file and space it takes up on a hard drive.

The Image Size consists of the width and height of an image. It can also be understood as the image resolution. Usually, these values are given in pixels and the following format:
