I envy DSLR users. The blank pictures are so clean compared to mine.

Gosh, my S3 IS has terrible amount of hot pixels. Should non-DSLR users be concerned about this? sweat.gif

Urrgh.. I feel that I'm in trouble. There is over hundreds(or probably thousands) of hot pixels, even at ISO200. I hope this is normal for non-DSLR cameras.

Addon: And I don't think those are noise. It's a distinctive white/blue/red pixel.

Okay, maybe a thousand is a little exaggerated. But I still doubt the reliability of my camera. There are quite plenty on the bottom left; Blue, red and lots of white pixels.

Zoom to 100% and you'll see more hot pixels.
