sensor to be a lemon. Return camera.
I have a DS which I purchased in November of last year. When I shoot
for more than a few frames (like, concert photography) at ISO800,
there are 13 (!!) pixels of varying shades and brightnesses that are
there in every frame. You'd consider that a dud camera/lemon?
Maybe it's time to take advantage of the 1-year warranty before it's
too late, but goodness me I don't want to be without the camera over
the holidays! Who would be the person that needed to be convinced of
that being a warranty-covered defect?
