What is DepthOfField SREF style

This visual aesthetic is defined by its pronounced use of shallow depth of field, resulting in creamy, soft background blur known as bokeh. It excels at isolating subjects—whether portraits, landscapes, or still life—with razor-sharp focus on the intended element. Mastering this technique in a **Midjourney** **prompt** allows users to create professional, magazine-quality imagery. To achieve this striking **style**, incorporating terms like "bokeh," "shallow focus," and "high aperture" is crucial for compelling results.

DepthOfField Prompt Ideas

  • Cinematic close-up portrait of an elegant woman in a rainy street, extreme shallow depth of field, neon reflections in the background bokeh
  • A detailed macro shot of a single dewdrop on a spiderweb, vibrant green foliage background dissolving into soft bokeh, sharp focus
  • Still life composition: a vintage leather-bound book resting on a weathered wooden table, soft natural lighting, creamy background bokeh
  • Mountain range viewed through a softly blurred windowpane, focus sharp only on the texture of the glass, atmospheric depth of field

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
