Nano Banana Prompts — Tips for Best Results

Tip 1: Always Preserve Likeness in Edit Prompts

Every edit-mode Nano Banana prompt should include “keep the person's face and likeness exactly the same.” Without this, the model may alter facial features during style transfers and background changes.

Tip 2: Be Specific, Not Vague

“Make it look nice” produces generic results. “Soft studio lighting from upper left, clean white background, 85mm f/2.8” produces professional results. Specific Nano Banana prompts always outperform vague ones.

Tip 3: Compare Across Models

Run the same Nano Banana prompt on GPT Image 2, Grok Imagine, and Z Image on Bananaify. Each model has different strengths — comparing outputs takes 30 seconds and finds the best result.

Tip 4: Use the Prompt Formula

Subject + Style + Lighting + Camera + Quality. This formula works for every Nano Banana prompt category. Full breakdown: AI Image Prompt Guide.
