I have a 20D and 5D. I sent my 20D to Canon for cleaning and hot pixel remapping the weak before the warantee ran out. It came back clean.
It has since developed two very hot pixels (visible at ISO 400, 1/100th). My 5D had a couple too and, as reported elsewhere, running the sensor cleaning mode seemed to get rid of them.
So, for Chuck, if this feature is real (and it seems to be) why isn't it documented? Second, having to send in a camera to have these pixels mapped out is expensive in both time and money. I'd be happy if the 20D could do what the 5D seems to do or if another tool was released that could allow users to map the little buggers out themselves without the time and expense of sending cameras to Canon all the time for a simple table update.
So how about it, Chuck. When will owners be able to fix these little things either in-camera or with a tool like "camera window" or something like that?
