Auto Dust Brush

The Auto Dust Brush reduces the visibility of fine dust particles on the film surface that cannot be removed with a brush or blower; all visible dust should be removed from the film, see handling film on page 18. The scanning time increases with the use of the Auto Dust Brush. This function cannot be used with 16-bit linear color depth. See page 11 for memory requirements.

Click the Auto Dust Brush button to activate the function; the dust removal processing is done at the final scan and is not applied to the prescan image. To cancel the Auto Dust Brush, click the Auto Dust Brush button again.

The Auto Dust Brush effect varies with the images and exposure control settings. The dust-removal effect is greater at high input resolutions. The retouching level can be changed in the preferences dialog box, see below. The Auto Dust Brush plug-in allows more control over a scanned image, see page 84.
