It's worth adding that ICE does not work with conventional black and white film (it does work with chromogenic films like XP2) and may or may not work with Kodachrome (it seems to depend upon the particular scanner/software). The downside is that the scan with ICE takes longer than without, however there is no extra effort involved, you just have to wait a little longer. It's obvious at this scale that it's removed the larger mark, but if you zoom into the sky you can see that it works at a much smaller level. The slide is pretty clean but I didn't do any extra cleaning before scanning. Scanned on a Reflecta ProScan 10T, Silverfast 9 (technically it's 'MagicTouch' not 'ICE' but it's the same idea) at 5000ppi. Shot on Ektachrome 400, Praktica SuperTL 1000, Regents Park, London.

However some people might not have seen what this looks like in practice, so this is an example.įirstly a slide from the 1980s. Some of the discussions on scanners and camera scanning mention 'Digital ICE' as an advantage of scanners over camera scanning (particularly for old photos).
