Fine Controls
These controls let you fine tune the effect in an effort to perfect the tradeoff between removing
dirt successfully and preserving true image detail.
Motion Threshold: This slider lets you choose the threshold at which pixels in
motion are considered to be dirt and artifacts. At lower values more dirt may escape
correction, but you’ll experience fewer motion artifacts. At higher values, more dirt will
be eliminated, but you may experience more motion artifacts in footage with camera or
subject motion.
Edge Ignore: This slider lets you exclude hard edges in the picture from being
affected by dirt or artifacts that are removed. Higher values omit more edges from
being affected.
Chromatic Aberration
(Studio Version Only)
A Revival category plug-in that lets you manually correct the slight color fringing that results
from chromatic aberration in a lens. “Estimated Red/Blue Fringes” checkboxes display an
“alignment guide” that visually isolates each of two types of fringing against gray.
(Left) The original image in close up, showing chromatic aberration, (Right) The image with Estimated Red
Fringes enabled, letting you see the specific problems as differences between red and cyan stripes
This makes it easy to make manual adjustments to correct the problem, using the Scale and
Edge controls to individually adjust Red/Cyan and Blue/Yellow fringing.
(Left) The original image in close up, showing chromatic aberration as a cyan fringe along
the right of the smokestack and as a red fringe along the closest corner of the building,
(Right) The corrected image in close up; this fringe is gone
Advanced Options provide additional parameters for problem shots. Center X and Y
parameters let you offset the center of the lens if you’re dealing with a reframed and
re-rendered shot. Balance parameters can help exaggerate hard-to-see fringing to make it
easier to correct, and the Fringe Magnification parameter enlarges the fringe indicators that are
displayed when you turn on either of the Estimated Fringes checkboxes.
