Photorealistic image generation on Influencer Studio is about more than sharpness—it’s about camera-believable lighting, natural skin texture, realistic materials, and scenes that hold up under close inspection. Flux Ultra 1.1 and GPT-Image 1.5 both target high-fidelity results, but they approach “photo-like” output with different strengths.
Below is a focused comparison for hyperrealistic renders that can pass as real photographs, including when each model shines, how reliably it follows prompts, and how pricing impacts day-to-day production.
Photorealistic — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"Hyperrealistic DSLR-quality photo of a 24–30-year-old woman with shoulder-length wavy dark brown hair and minimal makeup, wearing a cozy oversized oatmeal sweater and black leggings, holding her phone slightly above eye level for a casual selfie while glancing at the screen with a soft half-smile. She’s in a small neighborhood café by a window, one hand around a takeaway coffee cup on a wooden table with a laptop and messy earbuds, natural morning light casting realistic shadows and subtle skin texture/imperfections. Candid Instagram-story vibe, slight motion blur in the background, true-to-life color and accurate indoor/outdoor light mix."

Flux Ultra 1.1 Strengths
- Exceptional micro-detail for photoreal close-ups (skin texture, fabric weave, fine hair, subtle surface imperfections)
- Strong realism in lighting and materials, helping images read like real camera captures
- Premium, polished output that often needs fewer enhancement passes for high-end photoreal work
- Consistent “ultra-high detail” look suited to hero images and zoom-in scrutiny
GPT-Image 1.5 Strengths
- Strong prompt adherence for photoreal briefs with specific subject, wardrobe, props, and scene requirements
- Flexible fidelity settings (low/medium/high) to balance cost vs. realism depending on deliverable needs
- Reliable composition control for complex, detailed scenes where accuracy matters as much as realism
- High-fidelity output that performs well across varied photoreal styles (studio, lifestyle, environmental)
Verdict
If your top priority is maximum photoreal polish and ultra-fine detail that holds up under close inspection, Flux Ultra 1.1 is the more consistently “premium” choice—especially for hero shots, product-like clarity, and hyperreal portraits.
If you need photorealism and tight prompt accuracy with the option to scale quality to budget, GPT-Image 1.5 is the more versatile everyday workhorse. Use medium for most photoreal deliverables, and reserve high for the most demanding, camera-believable shots.
