  Hi all, need to do this advertising project, and am using my friend's D50 camera. Its 6-mega-pixels but I need to print something of A2,A1 size. Anybody whom has any solutions for me?Software or anything? Or do I simply shoot it in RAW?
  
  Thanks,

  Just send it to bras basah complex, they will do the magic, even if your pic is from a 2mp camera.

  Hey, I've done the editing and all that with Photoshop, my file size is now 2000X3008 and file size 334KB. Is it still possible for me to print A2 or A1 sized posters?

  if doesn't consist much of a photo. then printing at any size won't be much of an issue.

  6.1MP is more than enough for an A1/A2 printout. Make sure you keep your resolution at 300 dpi.
