The longer the exposure, the brighter and more hot pixels you'll get. This is normal...that's why new DCs have the pixel mapping or noise reduction implemented nowadays.

I would only be worried if the hot pixels start appearing in shorter exposure time i.e. 1/100 sec etc.

Hi, am new user for C5050. How do I run the pixel mapping function?

 

[BlueStone]

Go to "P" program mode
Press the menu button and select mode menu
Go the "Set" Setup section
Move up or down the sub-menus in the Setup section until you find "Pixel Mapping"
Select it and press the OK button the start the process.
You should then see a "Busy" processing bar
That's it!

I'm new to here.

I bought the new Mju 720SW in July, and till now i faced some noise problem in my photos quality.

I've set the ISO to the lowest but the problem persists.

Any advice?

Anyone attended the Olympus Workshop and how was it?

thanks.
