Single-image rephotography aims to synthesize new shots of a scene from a single reference image with specified viewpoints, focal lengths, and photographic effects, which are intrinsically coupled in imaging. Existing methods typically treat these factors separately and struggle under joint control: novel-view synthesis may introduce geometric distortions under focal-length changes, while super-resolution and instruction-guided editing remain confined to 2D and cannot reliably extend detail restoration or appearance control to novel viewpoints.

We attribute these limitations to imperfect single-image 3D reconstruction and the sampling limit of continuous focal-length enlargement. To reduce projection bias from geometric errors, we use implicitly transformed foundation-model features for robust target-view guidance.

We further formulate focal-length enlargement as a geometry-guided super-resolution problem and exploit generative detail priors to recover details lost during sparse 3D resampling. Built on this 3D-aware generative backbone, we lift photographic-effect control from 2D filtering to 3D-aware appearance editing, preserving content consistency across viewpoints and focal lengths.

These components form ReX-Shot, a geometry- and camera-grounded generative framework for single-image rephotography. To our knowledge, ReX-Shot is the first unified framework to jointly control viewpoint, focal length, and parameterized photographic effects from a single image.

Experiments show that ReX-Shot outperforms representative baselines across all three controls while enabling near-real-time interactive rephotography.
