[filmscanners] RE: Software dust removal



I concur with Art's comments respecting dICE's softening of images.  A key
factor is the verion of dICE that is used and implemented by the scanner
manufacturer as well as the specific negatives it is applied to and how well
they were processed to remove silver.
