The invention relates to a method for reading a Fourier hologram recorded on a holographic storage medium with a holographic storage system. The method comprises the steps of: —calculating a characteristic value from a detected image of a reconstructed Fourier hologram in at least two relative positions of a reference beam and said storage medium, each of the characteristic values being indicative of a misalignment of the reference beam and said storage medium at the respective relative position, —calculating a servo value from the measured characteristic values, —determining an aligned relative position of said reference beam and said storage medium by means of a predetermined servo function using the calculated servo value, —setting the relative position of the reference beam and said storage medium to said aligned relative position, and—detecting an image at said aligned relative position. The invention also relates to a holographic storage system for reading a Fourier hologram recorded on a holographic storage medium, said system comprising reference beam generating means, storage medium receiving means and a detector for detecting a reconstructed hologram. The system further comprises a servo control unit for executing the method according to the invention.
