MELVILLE, N.Y., Dec. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Canon
U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital
imaging solutions, today announced the new hdAlbum EZ service, an
innovative software solution that allows users to quickly and
easily create a photo book keepsake that captures their memories.
Building upon the success of the hdAlbum service launched in
January 2015, this new hdAlbum EZ
service features Canon's new advanced EAGiAL technology, which
automatically selects a user's photos based on lighting,
composition, and face recognition, and creates an elegantly,
styled layout with a storyline. The hdAlbum EZ service offers users
high-quality printing on the Canon DreamLabo 5000 inkjet production
photo printer which produces images with rich, vibrant color and
impeccable detail.
Accessible through the hdAlbum EZ App, the software helps reduce
the amount of time needed to select shots from a large collection
of photos, as well as create and edit a photo book. The hdAlbum EZ
App even has a built-in function to automatically capture still
frames from video files. This automatic feature has been included
in response to the increase of users creating videos in recent
years. This technology provides another way to capture compelling,
live-action images. The hdAlbum EZ App will be available for
compatible computers, tablets and smartphones.
"Sorting through files and selecting quality photos can be one
of the most time-consuming steps in photo album creation," said
Toyotsugu Kuwamura, executive vice president and general manager,
Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "The hdAlbum EZ automated
software automatically detects and chooses photos for album
creation. This time-saving solution provides an intuitive platform
for users to best tell their story, while also allowing more time
for creativity."
