Models1 min read
Google's image models. Calm, natural photorealism with no plastic look: skin, fabric and greenery come out real.
Open in Studio: Imagen 4 Ultra · Imagen 4

- The model-name button — click to open the list.
- Every version of the family with its price; the tick marks the current one.
| Version | Price | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Imagen 4 Ultra | 12 cr. | Google's maximum quality |
| Imagen 4 | 6 cr. | Base version: fast photorealism |
When to pick it
- Portraits and people — Imagen rarely breaks faces.
- Nature, food, interiors — anywhere naturalness matters.
- A final frame for print — Ultra; exploring ideas — the regular version.
A special setting
It supports a negative prompt — a list of what must not appear in the frame.
Tip
Imagen dislikes overloaded prompts. Describe one main subject, the light and the mood, then stop. Ten-requirement lists are better handed to GPT Image 2.
