Is there ever a reason to use the standard html img tag over the next/Image component?

Hi @muted bronze. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Yes, there might be situations where using the standard HTML <img> tag is more appropriate than using the next/image component. If none of the suggested methods for sizing images with next/image work for your use case, the next/image component is designed to work well on a page alongside standard <img> elements (source (https://beta.nextjs.org/docs/optimizing/images#local-images)).

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:

Optimize your images with the new next/image component.
