Dieder-- Have you tried the same experiment with Digital ICE set in the Normal setting rather than Fine? I find virtually no image information when I do a difference between a No Digital ICE scan and a Normal Digital ICE scan. I have been looking for some Nikon documentation on when to use Normal

Although I'm not a big fan of some versions of dICE (due to the fact that it can tend to soften the whole image due to residual silver removal (which it infers is dust or dirt)), or if the IR is not exactly tuned to the dye spectrum frequencies, it does work on most E-6 developed slides, and some

I suggest you look for any detail removed with Digital ICE because there will probably not be any detail removed. The reason the image may look less sharp is because the eye is being tricked by the surface defects (dust, scratches, etc.). There shouldn't be any residual silver in C-41 processed

May I also recommend Edwal anti-static film cleaner. My computer store sells very soft disposable material for cleaning CD's/DVDs, and combined with Edwal's anti-static cleaner, it is easy to reduce the amount of dust to a minimum - near zero. I've been using Edwal in tandem with the
