Hot pixels : should I ask for a new camera?

[Fusion]

Its not something I would be overly worried about unless there are hundreds of them.... would be interested to hear what Canon Service says...

This is a noise problem found with long exposures, some cameras have an option that will allow you to take a dark frame and then it will subtract the noise from the image. Astrophotographers have elaborate ways of doing this. They also cool their chips to reduce this. Most likely you will be told this is normal.

I talked with somebody from Canon Service, and he told me that is not normal, and to send in the camera.
I just sent it, and I'll have a new sensor.

Unusual, but good luck !!

Maybe, they're trying to have more things to do there, to be busy, to justify her presence there ?

Who knows but if they are going to give you a new sensor and you can live without the camera for however long it takes good for you, but all reports I have read is that this is not abnormal....
