Feedback on Firefly – Poor Quality for Realistic Photography

New Here ,
Jul 27, 2025 Jul 27, 2025

Hello,


I am a professional photographer, and I’ve been using Firefly mainly to enhance my studio photos. Unfortunately, the current Firefly models (especially in Generative Fill) produce extremely unrealistic, distorted, and cartoonish results, which are unusable for real photography.

 

I want to share an example. This is what I was able to create a while ago ducklings and mouses, and other things too with no errors and problems:

This is what it gives me now:

Duck and a lemon tree. Seriously? 

 

I tried so many different prompts - very detailed, very simple, different variations........ and nothing helps. All is generated in a very ugly way. Considering the fact that I am doing it in the same way as before - I have just one quest: What is happening?

 

Most of my credits are wasted because I need to regenerate dozens of times just to get one acceptable element. This was not the case a few months ago — Firefly used to deliver far better and more natural outputs for photographers.

 

Please consider improving the quality of realistic elements (such as animals, plants, and objects) and adding a “photorealistic” mode to avoid these frustrating results. Right now, Firefly is almost impossible to use for professional photo editing. And becouse of this I'm stuck with a few photoshoots that needs to be delivered to the client with a certain creteria that I can't achieve because of this.

 

Thank you.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Hey, thanks for moving it. And thanks for the link. I started my "journey" exactly on that page. It's really hard to find where exactly to post something 🙂

 

Hope I'll get an advice on my topic. Or it will be noticed as a bug.
