thermal noise will cause pixels to be bright enough to seem like a hot pixel
on a long enough exposure. dark field subtraction can remove only pixels
that hot in the dark field. if the actual exposure has bright pixels
different from the dark field, they will remain. Photoshop can detect these
and filter them out. the camera could too.

> I must admit I am slightly puzzled - I thought the in-camera NR (dark
frame subtraction) was supposed to get rid of ALL hot pixels by removing any
hot pixels in the dark frame from the resultant picture, presumably
interpolating a best guess of what should be there.  So why do you get ANY
hot pixels with NR on?
