Does HDRI resolution matter?

If you only care about the lighting that an HDRI gives you, resolution isn’t actually all that important. A 2000×1000 HDRI will give you lighting almost identical to a 16000×8000 one. If you go smaller than 2k, you might start to see blurry shadows, but even that is not usually a big deal.

How does HDRI lighting work?

HDRI (High Dynamic Range Imaging) is a technology that expands the dynamic range of an image and shows details in both shadows and highlights. Dynamic Range is a range of brightness values that can be recorded on media (film, photographic plate, photographic paper) or on the matrix of a digital camera.
