    Any tips on removing some dust spots (from the camera sensor)? They happened when changing lenses in a windy dusty place and didn’t realize till after the shoot. Mostly apparent in the sky at high f-stops…Is there a plugin or anything out there for this?

    You can try the CHV “Repair Collection”. I’ve never tried my self, but I’ve read some good feed-back.
    RedGiant used to have an application (AE) called “Film Fix” designed for his purpose.
    Anyway I think you will find a lot of info on Googles.

    How bad is it and how important is it? What’s your budget? The Foundry’s FurnaceCore plugins for FCP include F_DirtRemoval

    The Foundry’s plugins are very good and also very expensive. The “Rent” option is great.

    Depending on the amount of dust to remove and how the scenes look, AE’s paint-tool can do wonders with some manual labor. Imagineers Mocha Pro also has a very powerful removal tool.

    It does very much depend on how the shots look however and these tools aren’t cheap.

    I have been using the clone plugin which is part of the CHV collection that was linked to earlier. It is quite useful for simple removals as it can be keyframed. More complex removals are best doe with Motion or AE.
