Title: Re:Dust removal software/ Question forEd Hamrick

This is to Ed Hamrick

I have not been satisfied with the softening of images on my Nikon Super coolscan 4000 when
using Digital ICE for dust removal.  I received the following response to a post I placed on the Photo.net Forum.  What do you think.  Would I get less softening using Vuescan than Nikon Scan 3.1?

IMHO, Ed Hamrick's Vuescan uses better defect removal algorithms than ICE, and
the results are sharper. Vuescan uses the IR hardware of any scanner that's
fitted with it.
