V4 Image Generation Not Working Properly

[carlo22315408psnv]

Until recently, Firefly v4 handled visual intensity very well: low settings produced natural, realistic images, that appeared as if photographed casually with a regular camera, and higher settings introduced more controlled polish making the pictures look more professionally photographed. This week it stopped working. At low visual intensity, the outputs now appear grimy, artifact-filled, and visually unpleasant, often with a strange hdr filter look, rather than subtly styled.

Meanwhile, there seems to be no spectrum of variation, because even around 70% intensity, the model often produces results that look like maximum visual intensity, overly polished and unnatural. The nuanced control that v4 previously offered seems to have disappeared. Is this a known issue internally, and is it being addressed?

Hi carlo22315408psnv!

Thank you for reaching out and for describing your recent experience with Firefly v4 in such detail. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share specific observations about how the Visual Intensity. Could you please share a few example prompts and the settings you used when you observed these results? This will help us replicate the issue more precisely.

Also, please report such images by clicking on the thumb icon to provide feedback. 

Let us know.

Thanks,

^KR

Since I no longer have my previous Adobe educational license, I cannot directly access the images I mentioned in the original post. Nonetheless, I generated a few more and attached them. The limited range in Firefly’s visual intensity spectrum is evident: setting the visual intensity to 0 produces a realistic, naturally imperfect image, such as an ordinary photograph of a cat, whereas even a modest increase to 20% generates images that appear overly polished and artificial. Any setting from 20% to 100% consistently yields this type of image, showing no incremental variation across what should be a continuous spectrum of visual intensity.
