Dead Pixels!

I'm on my second GZ-HD7 now, I returned the first one because of a dead pixel. I just discovered that this one has a dead pixel also! Has anyone else experienced dead pixels on this camera? I'm about to return it and buy something different, I don't want to risk getting something that could have dead pixels in the future.

Also, I just noticed that on some of the sample clips I downloaded fromt this forum there are dead pixels also, sorry I can't remember the username of the person who posted the clip.

Thanks for replies!

Does your dead pixel show up in your footage, or just on your LCD? If it's just on the LCD, then that's perfectly normal, it even mentions that in most manuals. If it's in your actual footage, then getting two cameras with the same CCD problem is just fluke luck, or lack thereof. Third time's the charm!

Hello,

Can you please upload any of those clips so we can see here what exactly you are talking? I am using my GZHD7 since last three months and I have not come to see that problem so far, I really would appreciate if you can post clip.

Thanks,
Rush
