What is Kodachrome SREF style

This aesthetic mimics the iconic look of vintage Kodachrome slides, celebrated for its rich saturation, deep cyan blues in shadows, and warm color shifts, particularly noticeable in skin tones and landscapes. When using **Midjourney**, incorporating this **style** into your **prompt** results in images that feel authentically retro yet vividly colored, reminiscent of 1960s and 1970s documentary or high-end amateur photography. The resulting visuals possess a nostalgic, tangible film quality.

  • Still life composition of antique colored glassware and vibrant roses, strong rim lighting, reminiscent of mid-century color photography

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?
