Restoring an Old Photograph

With Old Photo, you can record the image of an old, faded photograph and then use the camera’s built-in advanced digital camera technology to restore it.

■Before Recording with Old Photo

•Make sure the entire photograph you are trying to record is enclosed within the monitor screen.

•Make sure the photograph is against a background that allows its outline to stand out, and that it fills the monitor screen to the maximum extent possible.

•Make sure that light is not reflecting off the surface of the original photograph when recording it.

•If the old photograph is portrait orientation, be sure to compose the image with the camera in landscape (horizontal) orientation.

NOTE

•When the camera is at an angle to the photograph you are recording, the shape of the photograph may appear distorted in the recorded image. Auto keystone correction corrects for this distortion, which means that a photograph appears normal even if you record it at an angle.
