Our verdict

Choose Midjourney when distinctive AI stills (and optional video) are the job — not Firefly-in-Photoshop and not ChatGPT images. Compare Adobe Firefly for Creative Cloud + commercial IP posture. Scores reflect first-party documentation as of 2026-08-18 — not hands-on product testing. Confirm current packaging, usage caps and credit rates on the vendor site before purchase.
