Part 4. Tips to Make the Most of Google Nano Banana Free

Given that Nano Banana Pro free is so severely limited, you might want to make the most out of it. To that effect, we have some tips that you can use to get the output right the first time around! Here are some AI prompting tips to keep in mind.

Tip 1: Be Clear and Detailed

Write your prompt as legibly as possible, as detailed as possible, and avoid confusing words. Think from the artist or painter’s point of view – start big, then get into the details. Details are key; give as much as possible, the first time around itself.

For example: Create a photo from the perspective of a professional photographer using 35mm prime lens. The scene is a young boy playing with a football in a park, where he is about to kick the ball into the distance. The sky is scattered with clouds, the sun is shining, people are walking in the park, and some elderly people are sitting on the park benches.

This will give you a solid start, and you can refine from there.

Tip 2: Avoid Negative Words

There is no need to tell the AI what it need not do. Avoid the negatives and simply prompt it with what you want done. Prompt what you want and don’t what you don’t, it’s that simple!

Tip 3: Advanced Prompting

Techniques such as chain-of-thought prompting, few-shot, multi-shot and iterative prompting are how you arrive at the exact result you want out of an AI model. Given that the free version of Nano Banana Pro is so limited, you might want to use the techniques within the first prompt itself.
