Static white dots, hot pixels?

Hi,

got the BMPCC two days ago. First tests were at very lowlight, 1600 ISO.
The images are full of static white pixels, after raising the levels.
Recording a black clip with closed lens-cap and subtracting it from the footage helps.
I remember this workaround from older highspeed cameras.
Any firmware-update to do this "in-camera" like the others do?

I really wonder that this has not yet discussed before, at least I could not find anything about it. I've seen it in footage from other people too.

Another issue: when turning the camera off it happens sometimes that it gets back on by itself. Maybe because of pressing the power button too long?

Apart of the little problems: really incredible picture quality.


Cheers

Alex

At high ISO, with insufficient lighting, even with DSLR's and no post correction - you will see hot pixels.

If you see them in properly lit scenarios, then its cause for concern. From what you describe, it is not a properly lit scenario.

Thanks for your reply. Basically I was shooting in the dark. With some few lanterns around.
Nontheless: for the almost not present lighting I'm amazed by what I got! (Sigma 18-35, without Speedbooster yet)
