Nano Banana Pro
Nano Banana Pro is an image model by Google. An image generation and editing option for composed scenes, detailed references and text inside an image. “Pro” names a family tier, not a promise that it is the newest model or best for every scene.

Prompting playbook
Section titled “Prompting playbook”Describe composition, lighting and the role of each reference. For text, specify exact wording, placement and type treatment. Ask for a complete full-body composition when feet and clothing must be visible.
Studio example
Section titled “Studio example”On an Image node (Картинка), choose Nano Banana Pro. Supply the input image or Element when the selected operation requires a reference. Use this original example as a starting point:
A full-body illustration of the courier from the reference, including both shoes, holding a folded map. Leave clear space above the head for a short title added later.
Review the prompt and expected format before running. Compare the output against the source, including hands, face, object count, lettering and crop. Use the resulting scene image as a video first frame only after approving it. For automation, follow the supported MCP workflow.
Known failure modes
Section titled “Known failure modes”Fine detail can coexist with incorrect composition. Inspect crops and unwanted lettering rather than accepting a detailed face as proof the whole brief passed.
Evidence and limits
Section titled “Evidence and limits”A 16 August 2026 character-sheet test produced detailed face and hand inserts but omitted the requested full-body views and added lettering. That is a mixed result on a particular layout, not a universal quality ranking.
An available reference input is not a guarantee of identity preservation. See reference workflows and image style samples. Generation and editing are different tasks; keep their evidence separate.
