Model Limitations

Resolution Limit

Nano Banana generates images at a maximum resolution of 1536x672 pixels (~1 MP), which may not be suitable for large-format printing or professional photography requiring higher resolutions. For 4K output, consider Nano Banana Pro.

Character Consistency Variability

While Nano Banana excels at character consistency, it may not always achieve perfect accuracy across all scenarios. Complex character features or extreme pose changes may require multiple attempts to achieve desired consistency.

Limited Reference Images

Nano Banana supports up to 3 reference images for blending, compared to Nano Banana Pro's 14 images. For complex compositions requiring multiple reference elements or maintaining consistency across many subjects, the Pro version offers greater flexibility.

Text Rendering Accuracy

While Nano Banana can incorporate text in images, rendering accuracy for complex typography, specific fonts, or long text passages may vary. For professional text rendering requirements, Nano Banana Pro offers enhanced capabilities.
