Thanks for the examples, Henry.
I agree that Ed should separate the filters - I have a non-IR scanner, and
am not a user of Vuescan yet, but this function would probably tip me into
the camp.
But ONLY if it doesn't soften my image as much as your samples indicate..

This is off-topic, but slightly related, in that all the pictures in this
album were scanned on my SS4000 using VueScan and Fuji Provia 100F film.
Every picture was too saturated and I had to reduce color saturation in
Photoshop. I'm satisfied with the results, however.

I think most of the softening is the dust removal algorithms at higher

Advice for preventing buffer underruns is scattered throughout

brief summary:
One thing I wish the CD recording software did was give you an option to
VERIFY the burn went OK.
If you don't go the ICE route and live in a dusty environment (or work
with negatives from periods of your life when your storage habits were
not the best, as I do) a graphics tablet becomes an extraordinary
blessing. Helps in many ways, but makes using the clone tool for
spotting so much quicker

One could go back and try dust removal using Vuescan 6.5 (or some release
before 6.6, which is when the film grain reduction was added to vuescan).
Again, I refer you to this page I set up that does just what you suggest:
A large, heavy trackball on stainless steel rollers with software providing
precision control over the ballistics of the pointer is also excellent. I

Related: why in general does Ice-based dust removal soften the image.
The purpose of the IR channel is to identify the particular spots that
are dust / scratches. Shouldn't the software only affect those areas
leaving the rest of the image alone and sharp?

Digital ICE from Applied Science Fiction should not soften the image. It
identifies defects and corrects them. Even if there is a single strand of
hair on a models face, it should still be there after the defects are
removed. I have an example of an old Marilyn Monroe image taken by George

I still have several versions prior to 6.6. I'll see if I can give it a go.

When you do a scan using the Nikon interface do you have the "CleanImage"
(Nikon's old name for Digital ICE) in the "Mode: On (Sharpen)" or "Mode: On

slightly. You should run in "Mode: On (Sharpen)". This should solve
