Prompt
"A 20s woman with shoulder-length wavy dark hair in a casual oversized hoodie and leggings holds her phone slightly above eye level, looking near the camera with a relaxed half-smile while sitting by a café window with a latte and laptop on the table. Bright natural window light, clean stock-photo composition, candid Instagram-story vibe with subtle background blur and everyday street scene outside."

Verdict
Choose Flux Ultra 1.1 when your priority is premium photorealism—high-end lifestyle, product-adjacent visuals, and hero stock images where textures, lighting nuance, and overall “camera-like” finish matter most. At 16 credits per image, it’s straightforward to budget for consistent premium outputs.

Its low/medium/high tiers (8/16/32 credits) make it practical for iterating quickly on concepts and then scaling quality for final selections.
