I guess it's all a matter of opinion. Here's mine: cloning to remove dust is
fine. Minor unsharp mask to restore original apearance is ok too. You may
need to adjust color balance/saturation and/or contrast/brightness to get
the scan to resemble the original. All of this is ok to make the scanned
image look like the original. Then you can reasonable present the image as a
representation of the original photograph.


What exactly does the unsharp mask do to "restore original appearance"?
Doesn't it make the picture, eh well... unsharp?
