Olympus E-400 Pixel Mapping
We have already seen the pixel mapping function in several generations of cameras. This function enables the Olympus E-400 to check the image sensor and image editing functions, and adjust them where necessary. Generally, the pixel mapping function will not have to be used often, Olympus recommend using the pixel mapping once a year. Before the function is activated, the camera requires a one minute wait if the monitor has been used, or if you have captured images continuously.
Will monitor how my camera performs - this is the first time in 4 and a half years that I've encountered any issues with my E400 - I have fired off a few shots with it too.....
Been an expensive few months, so lets hope that this cures the problem, or I'm on the hunt for an E3.....

,Excellent news. I believe the pixel mapping reads the sensor many times. When it finds the same "flaw" in every shot, the software eliminates that pixel and interpolates its replacement.Turbogirlie wrote: 5 months on & several images later, still no hot pixel!
Still happy with the E-3 too....
