Why To 500KB?

500KB is a good balance between quality and file size. Most photos can hit this target without visible quality loss, and it works for most email and upload limits.

This target size is enough for detailed photos while still being reasonable for web use and sharing. Most viewers won't notice any compression.

If you need smaller files, try the 100KB target. If quality is paramount, try 1MB.
