When we had this house built I just had them run cat 5e to many rooms. Never know when you might need it. That was in 08.
There is some debate about just how much effect all those camera-related prompt elements actually impacts the output. Remeber, MidJourney and Stable Diffusion (SD) are not cameras, they are language processors that try and 'pull' the prompted image from the dataset (model). To the extent camera terms help, it's only if images in the data set had related text tags associated with them during the training phase.
ChatGPT uses them because the data set it was trained on makes frequent mention of them, so the myth perpetuates.
Wow, all of those pictures are amazing. Is this software available for free online?It looks like people are getting very good results with a very wide variety of prompts.
I saw someone posting an interesting image with lots of camera settings that made little sense to me. The person posting didn't understand photography at all and just took what Bard gave him.
The prompt specified a wide angle shot using a telephoto lens. It specified an ISO value, but not the camera or film used. It specified an Aperture, but didn't specify a focal length. The image looked like a tripod panning motion shot with a fast moving car and blurred background which is a challenging image to capture, but the prompt specified manual focus. The car was also at a 3/4 view, so the focus would have to change very quickly while panning the camera. Basically impossible to do manually.
I thought about what was specified for a while and the image created. Even though there was superfluous data that I'm sure Midjourney ignored, the rest could be made to work given there is no real camera.
A telephoto could get a wide shot if taken from far enough away. With a car coming at you, being far away would be a good thing. The shutter speed of 1/800s seemed very short for panning blur shot, but considering the distance and it being a telephoto lens, it might work. Also given there is no real camera Midjourney could make that shot work.
So more power for Midjourney from taking that prompt and creating a great looking image with it.
---------------------------
Below I created a more photographically accurate prompt that seems like it could work to create the image that the other guy was after. I'm not saying that I could take this shot in real life, but at least it seems possible. I also notice that at f5.6 the rear quarter panel is out of focus which makes sense. At 200mm f8 would probably be better to get the whole car in focus and because of the panning action the car would still have plenty of separation from the background.

I tried the exact same shot changing the prompt to f8 and the rear quarter panel is now in focus.
So I think that the camera settings do actually work and impact your images, but that Midjourney will do its best to make the most out of camera gibberish as well

One more thing bothered me. The wheel's hubs didn't seem blurred enough.
So I specified the car's speed and dropped the shutter speed and one of the 4 images it gave me showed the hubs blurred. Of course in this image the car is no longer presented in a 3/4 view. So still not exactly what I asked for.

It seems that Midjourney ignores ISO completely. I tried to get some film grain by specifying Kodak Gold film and saw none, however I did get the warm hues that you would expect with Kodak Gold on all 4 images. I also tried Fuji film and it had the greenish case as expected in some, but not all images.
