Hello Kostas, I can say that after scanning thousands of pictures, that dust on the sensor is a minuscule problem compared to all the crap that is on negatives. I don't have to blow the dust off very often and then it is a 20 second operation. If a few images end up with a dust spot, it is no different than cloning out all the dust from scans.
Lack of cleanup of images is one of the MAJOR reasons to shoot digital if you are already scanning. -- Best regards, Bruce Thursday, November 11, 2004, 9:17:10 AM, you wrote: KK> On Thu, 11 Nov 2004, Shel Belinkoff wrote: >> I have some concerns about moving to digital, not as a replacement for film >> but as a supplemental system.
