I sent my Pentax *ist D just before the end of the one year warranty to Colorado because of what I thought were a high number of hot pixels:
6 hot pixels at 1/60 sec 7 at 1/15 sec 13 at 1/4 sec 37 at 1 sec It came back after 4 weeks with a note stating that: "We completed an evaluation of your product and have run a program designed to eliminate "hot" pixels. It is not common for a sensor with millions of light sensitive areas to have this phenomenon." I did a quick test last night, and now there are 4 hot pixels at 1 sec and none at 1/4, 1/15, and 1/60 sec. For your information, I used the "deadpixeltest" program. http://www.starzen.com/imaging/deadpixeltest.htm __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
