I took 500 pics of the exact same landscape (don't ask why!) and each shot was taken within a second of each other, tripod mounted, same settings, etc, etc. My problemo is that there is sensor dust in every single one of them. Good news: it's in the same exact spot since the camera never moved, and it's in the sky, not near any land objects. Question: How do I batch "spot healer" on all 500 pics at once? There's no way I'm going through 500 pictures to remove 5 spots from each. There has to be a way to make this possible. First person who says it can't be done owes me a dollar :)
Any help?? Thanks!

How about doing it once then saving it 500 times, if everything else is the same.....

They're waves crashing onto the beach, so each photo is subtly different near the bottom, but not in the sky where the spots are. Nice try tho ;-)

An action combined with a batch process?

what about recording an action? Use the clone stamp/healing tool to fix the spot, record that action, then run that action on all the photos?

If that doesn't work, maybe try creating a new "layer" which has a healed version of that area of the sky. then create an action which loads the photo, pastes the "fixed" sky on the photo, then flattens and saves the image.
