Hi everyone,

I’m working on reproducing a 10x10 cm artwork and need it printed in A1 size at 300 or 150 DPI. I’m using a Nikon D850 paired with an AF-S Nikkor 85mm f/1.8 lens, and I have access to a studio with good lighting (including flashes).

Here are my questions:

1. Resolution and Output: Is the D850’s 45 MP sensor sufficient for achieving high-quality results at A1 size, especially at 300 DPI?
2. Camera Settings: What are the recommended settings for aperture, ISO, shutter speed, and white balance to ensure maximum sharpness and color accuracy?
3. General Advice: Any additional tips for shooting artwork reproduction with this setup?

Thanks in advance for your help!
