Best practices for high-quality large gallery prints with Sony A7 IV?

Hey everyone,

I’m shooting on a Sony A7 IV and want to start producing large, gallery-quality prints (thinking 24x36 and bigger). I want to make sure I’m not leaving quality on the table when it comes to capture settings and overall workflow.

A few things I’d love input on:

What camera settings do you prioritize for maximum print quality?

Best practices for editing/exporting specifically for print?

Color profiles / calibration tips before sending to print?

Also curious if anyone has experience printing really large (30x40+) from the A7 IV — does it hold up well?

Appreciate any advice, especially from those doing professional or gallery work.

Edit

any guidance on in camera settings..specifically the following

- JPEG/HEIF

- RAW file type (uncompressed, lossless L,M,S, Compressed)

- color space

Any other in camera settings to be aware of?

For context im planning on shooting islamic architecture specifically mosques and plan on having a majority of the prints 12x16 or 16x24 (paper) with a few panoramic shots probably on acrylic or metal thatll be around 6ft long side as gifts for some of my muslim friends. Most of the shots will focus on geometric designs and arches of the mosqus and i want to make sure i can nail it as best as i can. Im experienced in photography but have never done prints before.

Thanks for the help!
