Capturing still images from video


Select HP Photosmart cameras include exclusive HP video print technology that lets you capture VGA video up to 30 frames per second, plus the ability to select a single video frame to save as a separate still image.

HP video print gives you a new way to use your camera to capture important moments in your life. No computer is required to use this feature!

original and enhanced frame comparison HP uses special image processing techniques to extract a frame from the video, improve the quality, reduce MPEG artifacts, and create a still image from any frame in the video. Because the photo is based on video which is captured at lower resolution, it will look best when printed as a 3x5 or 4x6 photo.

How to capture a frame


To use the video print feature, follow these simple steps.

1. Make sure your camera's video quality is set to VGA***, then capture your video clip.
