Nano Banana Pro now works with Adobe Photoshop and Firefly: here’s how to try it

Google launched its Nano Banana Pro model with improved text rendering and better character consistency last week. Just like its predecessor, the Nano Banana Pro also went on top various benchmarks and at this point may just be the best AI image generation and editing tool that one can use at the moment.

However, unlike Nano Banana, the new model has limited image generations for the free users and if you don't have a Google AI subscription (which by the way is currently free for Jio users), you would have to find alternatives. And one such altenative could be Adobe Firefly and Photosop.

Meanwhile, on Firefly Boards, users will be able to leverage Nano Banana Pro for developing campaign concepts by uploading texts, images, and icons and asking the AI model to visualize them in real-world contexts like bibbboard.

Meanwhile, on Photoshop, Adobe using Nano Banana Pro to power the Generative Fill feature - the AI backed feature which allows users to add, remove, or modify an image using simple text prompt.

“With Firefly and partner models in Photoshop, creative professionals can move seamlessly from generative experimentation to refining results using layers, masks, and selections for pixel-perfect editing, all without breaking their workflow.” Adobe said in a release

Adobe does not list how many free edits one can make with Nano Banana Pro on Firefly but I was able to edit at least 3 images using Google's new AI model in Firefly. The good thing wih Firefly is that you can also select the exact aspect ratio for your image like 16:9 or 3:4, both while editing and image generation which gives it an edge over using Nano Banana Pro directly via Gemini.

While Gemini usually follows the directions about aspect ratio correctly, there have been many cases in the past where the chatbot failed to listen to my instructions correctly and I had to navigate to some other chatbot to fix the aspect ratio.
