| Video File Size Calculation for a Single Frame |
| Select your image/video resolution: pixel count for the width and pixel count for the height. |
| select image size |
|
| total pixels per image (l*h) = |
345,600 px
(or 0.3 Megapixels) |
| now we add color (RGB resp. YUC) |
| pixel count with color (l*h)*3 = |
1,036,800 px |
| now add bit depth to each pixel |
| bits per pixel (bpp) |
|
| bits per color channel 8-bit = |
8,294,400 bits |
| or in byte (bit/8) = |
1,036,800 Byte = 1,012.50KB/frame |

| Calculation Help: |
If each pixel is represented by 1-bit, each frame has
0
color bits (0 pixel count x3);
or in Bites this would equal to 0.00

For example, this is the ways we export most of our 8mm film transfered to a final file
Background: During the past three years, we experienced the need for increased hardware upgrades. So we kept asking ourselves, "What kind of storage capacity is needed, and what kind of data transfer rate will it require?" Also our website estimation tool required this information. So we went ahead an programmed this calculator. We hope this calculator will helps you, as much as it heps us make an informative decision.
