The best conditions for creating one's own textures
I was reading a post on this forum and a user asked how s/he could render a very realistic (high end) picture with SweetHome3D. The reply given was to use high quality textures.

Now when browsing the internet it is not always possible to find the best textures, sometimes the images are small, sometimes they are distorted etc.

I was wondering what the best conditions are for creating one's own textures using a digital camera. For example;

What size?
What DPI?
What about lighting?
Any other camera settings (for example shutter speed)?
