Specific Cameras for Your Midjourney Prompt!
A simple list that can elevate your photographic Midjourney prompts

Hey everyone, just wanted to drop in real quick with something simple but useful. If you've been to my Generative Art galley, you've seen that I rarely prompt an photographic image without naming a camera. That shows you how important it is to the result. If you're into image generation with AI, specifically Midjourney, I've got a list of cameras you can use in your photo prompts. To get started using Midjourney, I've created a step-by-step tutorial you can find in my How-To-Guides. These cameras should also work well with other image-generating AIs, so feel free to experiment. The list has the exact name of the camera to copy and paste into your prompts (capitalization matters here), along with a description of where that camera excels for your own reference. A link to a Google Docs list is at the bottom, if you'd rather have it that way.

The format for these prompts is super straightforward: "[Subject] [preposition] [scene] [camera, lens, lighting] [in the style of] [general feel/mood of the scene]". Just fill in the blanks, try to only use commas to separate the above brackets, and don't use them anywhere inside the brackets (commas separate entire "thoughts" to an image-generating AI). Give it a whirl and see what kind of awesome images you can create! Share yours on the Get In Touch page!
