"Midjourney v5.2's Zoom Out Feature Impresses AI Artists"

Midjourney has unveiled version 5.2 of its AI-powered image synthesis model, which includes a new "zoom out" feature that allows maintaining a central synthesized image while automatically building out a larger scene around it, simulating zooming out with a camera lens. The update also includes an overhauled aesthetic system, a stronger "--stylize" command, a new "high variation mode," and a "/shorten" command. Midjourney's visual improvements have been called "stunning" and "mindblowing" by users, and the latest update is part of a series of quality improvements since March 2022.
