BMPCC 4K Dead pixels

PostThu Dec 06, 2018 8:54 pm

Just recieved my camera and it has about 7 maybe more red/white/blue/green dead pixels straigh in front of center third of the screen! What should I do? Send it back overseas? It has no pixel remap function so I don't know.

You should contact Blackmagic support. To someone here on the forum with the same problem they have stated that the camera can be send in to a local Blackmagic office and they can map the pixels out.
BTW, dead pixels are normally just black, so yours seem to be stuck or hot pixels.
Saying "Thx for help!" is not a crime.
