Kling 4.0 Flash
A lighter Kling 4.0: clips of 3–20 seconds in 720p from text and references, or from a start frame.
When to choose it
Kling 4.0 Flash is the short, 720p version of Kling 4.0. It has two modes: Text and references builds a scene from a prompt, up to 7 photos and 5 videos; Start frame brings one photo to life. Choose it when 720p and 20 seconds are enough; for 1080p, 30 seconds and a chain of keyframes there is Kling 4.0.
- Up to 7 photos and 5 videos in one request; the videos together up to 20 seconds.
- Start frame: one optional photo sets the composition and format.
- Aspect ratios Auto, 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 and 21:9 in references mode.
Modes and settings
- Text and references: a prompt up to 8000 characters, up to 7 photos and up to 5 videos totaling up to 20 seconds; the Video sound switch keeps the sound of reference videos.
- Start frame: one optional photo; without it choose 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 21:9, with it the format follows the photo.
- Duration 3–20 seconds, 720p only; 1, 2 or 4 results per run.
- Billing is per second. With a reference video you pay for the result seconds plus the larger of two values: the input video length or the result length.
Price in coins
| Quality / size | Input | Coins / second |
|---|---|---|
| 720p | First frame | — |
| 720p | Text and references | — |
| 720p | With video reference | — |
Billing is per second, not per fixed-length clip. The rate is multiplied by the billable duration; the complete request total is rounded up to a whole coin once.
With a reference video you pay for the result seconds plus the larger of two values: the input video length or the result length, at the With video reference rate. The minimum is 3 seconds.
≈ marks a fractional rate rounded to two decimal places for display; billing uses full precision.
The dollar price follows the current coin rate.
What you can make
- Quick tries of a scene before running it in full Kling 4.0.
- A short clip from one photo: set a start frame and describe the motion.
How to direct the result
- Say what each reference is for: hero, location or object.
- In Start frame mode describe only the motion and the camera: the look is already set by the photo.
Example: one photo comes alive
Start frame: a woman at a bus stop in the rain, medium shot. She checks her watch, then looks down the street as a bus arrives from the right. Static camera, a slow push-in at the end. Her face and coat stay the same. Soft overcast light.
What to keep in mind
- Flash gives 720p and up to 20 seconds only; choose Kling 4.0 for 1080p and 30 seconds.
- Start frame mode accepts no video: videos belong to references mode only.
