For this subject: Hard pixel edges with no anti-aliasing; dithering handles gradients instead.
  • Specify the palette size — unlimited colour is what makes fake pixel art look downsampled rather than drawn.
  • Keep one clear subject — editorial images fail when the frame is busy.
  • Swap the lens to 50mm f/1.2 for a wider environmental version.
  • Add "shot for a magazine cover, generous top margin" if you need space for a headline.
