Google ships Nano Banana 2 Lite and Gemini Omni Flash, chaining fast images into video

Google released two generative-media models for developers on June 30. Nano Banana 2 Lite turns text into images in about four seconds at $0.034 per thousand, built for rapid iteration. Gemini Omni Flash generates and edits clips up to ten seconds through natural-language prompts. The two chain together: feed a generated image into Omni Flash to animate it, stacking up to three sequential edits.
