Detailed instructions for restoring old photos
The following is a professional restoration process for ancestral photographs:
- Prepare for preprocessing: First, use your cell phone to flip the original film at a resolution of 600 dpi or higher to ensure that the image is centered and free of shadows.
- Function Selection: Open Pixcue and select "Triple Repair" mode (automatic combination of repair/color/enhancement functions).
- parameterization: Manually set the era to the shooting period (e.g. "1960s") so that the AI adopts the color standard of the corresponding era.
- Detailed Optimization: Use built-in tools to fine-tune specific areas after processing is complete (e.g., correct skin tone deviations)
- Output Saving: It is recommended to export to TIFF format to retain maximum image quality and save the original file as a backup.
Note: Seriously damaged photos are recommended to be processed in stages: first repair the structural damage → then deal with fading → finally coloring. The whole process takes about 3-5 minutes, depending on the degree of photo damage.
