FAQ
What is the recommended prompt length for best results?
The guide recommends 30–80 words as standard for most projects. Quick iteration works with 10–30 words, detailed scenes with 80–120 words, and complex compositions up to 120+ words, with diminishing returns past ~150 words.
Which camera settings are suggested?
The guide lists camera bodies such as Hasselblad, Leica, Sony A7R4, Nikon Z9, Canon R5, and Pentax 645Z. Lens focal lengths range from 35mm (wide) to 200mm (telephoto). Aperture suggestions: f/1.2–f/2 for shallow blur, f/4 balanced, f/8–f/11 sharp, f/16 for landscape.
Are there any language rules for writing prompts?
Yes: use action verbs, flowing prose, and be specific (e.g., 'Hasselblad at f/4' instead of 'professional camera'). Avoid negative terms and generic phrases like 'high quality' or 'ultra HD'. Use quotation marks for text in images.
What style references are included?
The guide includes photographers (Ansel Adams, Annie Leibovitz, Gregory Crewdson, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Steve McCurry, Peter Lik), art styles (art deco, bauhaus, ukiyo-e, brutalist, cyberpunk, solarpunk, dark academia, cottagecore), and film palettes (Blade Runner 2049, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Mad Max: Fury Road, Moonlight).
