Version: 0.9.3-beta2 (using KDE 3.5.8, Gentoo) Compiler: Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.23-gentoo-r3 In DSLR one of the main problems is the contamination of the CCD sensor and therefore the visible spots on the images. In Photoshop exists a tool for reducing these spots. It would be a very usefull extension of Digikam oder Kipi if such a tool will be integrated into the programm. Thanks.
Cannot Hot Pixels Correction tool be used for that?
The Inpainting plugin can do that to some extent. As long as the spots are on a evenly colored area (like the sky), it will remove it. I doesn't work with structured backgrounds. Gerhard
But Inpainting you have to apply by hand to spots one by one. I suppose OP wants to create "mask" which could be used on whole image and used for all photos from particular camera.
This is the goal of HotPixels tool already implemented.
