The horizontal lines are the lines from the photo album page surface the picture was in.
There must be something in the air as I've been going through my thousands of old prints taken between 1967 to 2005, scanning and then editing in Topaz AI. It does a great job. Thanks Anthony.
The photo is improved but the horizontal lines were still visible on the bottom arround the hands. With different settings this can be removed.
What a great job you do with your videos! I’ve learned a lot.
Great tutorial. Thanks
Very helpful, Anthony.
The horizontal lines appear to be from a sticky photo album of the same era. These albums had a sticky surface on the page that was laid down in horizontal lines to which you would affix the photo, then cover it with the folding clear acetate page. You first had to lift the clear acetate cover off of the blank page and the underside of the cover had some of the horizontal glue adhering to it which in turn would be applied to the photo when re-covered.
Yep! You beat me to it. I recall they were marketed as "magnetic" albums even though there was nothing magnetic about them.
🎯
Really enjoying your Topaz series.
That did a pretty amazing job on the faces in the image - hands still need work, but the faces seemed to be spot on!
Perfect - I have all kinds of old scanned family slides and photos that this software would be useful on. Also have a number of 35mm B&W negatives that I scanned, curious to find out how it does with those. I'm sold, will purchase this.
Update (2 wks after purchase): This is an amazing program! It has revived some old, blurry photos and made them look like they were taken with a great camera! One point of contention with Anthony's great review. When it recognizes faces, there does NOT appear to be a way to force facial recognition that the program missed. The "Select" button in PhotoAI only allows you to unselect found faces. I hope they add that feature as it missed a few in group photos where the subjects were looking sideways or down. That said, I had a large group family B&W photo taken around 1960 and it recognized & restored 34 faces! Incredible!
I developed old film and and some were from the 1920s when our Dad was in the movies. They are unbelievavle!
Hi Mr Morganti, this has made me think about purchasing this software. One small thing though, why cut part of your moms hand off when cropping it?
Wow
The Photo AI has just been updated to v1.2.4 with further improvements and now can work as an Apple Photo extension.
Does this help old slides with an extreme orange cast?
No but that’s easy to fix in PS. Anthony and others have loads of tips for getting rid of bad casts. I’ve done it very successfully in PS
Might be a bit of a green tint to the image. Is there a way to remove that?
White balance helps a little if not I look at converting to B&W and adjusting reds yellows and maybe green.
Sometime going down to Calibration and using Blue luminance slider makes it pop a little. Have fun
It’s easy to remove colour casts in PS. That’s why I open in PS and fix casts then do the topaz work
Those horizontal lines, while removed from the background, are still quite noticeable going across the two people and other lower parts of the image. How would you handle those?
certainly an imporvement but those lines were still there in the lower third of the image especially on the hands. Have you tried this image against Photoshop neural filters? or even On1 NoNoise and tacksharp?
This seems to be giving a very similar result to the latest neural filter in PS. Love to see a comparison as I don't have the Topaz AI.
It’s way better than the neural filter for face focusing. But I tend to use both on old photos. Neural first with minimum face enhancement and then retouch or any rubbish in PS then photo ai for final face sharpening. I also always save to tiff and not jpg as storage is cheap and it’s easy to work further on the image later without further artefacts from jpg compression
@@longboardfella5306 That's very interesting because the few old scans I've tried (from 1980'sslide film) I thought the face enhancement in the Neural Filter was the most successful part of it. If the Topaz is much better then it's worth considering. Thanks for the info
@@michaelmillward8006 I agree the neural face enhancement in PS is pretty good - but Topaz Ai better. But I like the photo restore capabilities in PS neural filter - so I tend to use a combo for old photos.
