Appending Dust Delete DataN

Normally, the Self Cleaning Sensor Unit will eliminate most of the dust
that might be visible on captured images. However, in case visible dust
still remains, you can append the Dust Delete Data to the image to later
erase the dust spots. The Dust Delete Data is used by Digital Photo
Professional (provided software) to erase the dust spots automatically.
