Hi Brad,

 

It’s not standard to approach charities with a contract. They will give you a receipt for the work but it ends there. Some charities do give the artist a portion of the sale but not all. Not most, in fact.

I hope that helps.

Hi Beverley,

You’re right in that shots taken at 72dpi can be made into 300 dpi. But unless the camera has very high resolution, this is not a good practice.

I would focus on the other camera – which is an excellent brand.

I did a quick google search for “best cameras to shoot artwork” and also “best practices to shoot artwork.” There were a ton of suggestions and some good pointers. Lenses and lighting are important.

But once you get your system down, it’s yours!
