Hot Pixels


Recommended Posts

Has anyone here dealt with hot / stuck pixels on a GFX camera? Just purchased the camera from someone reputable on Fred Miranda and immediately noticed hot pixels all over the image. I did the pixel remapping and it seems to have helped. Should I still be worried about anything? Is this normal?

I've had this issue as well with my GFX 100s, seems like when the sensor gets hot it starts to collect what are called 'hot pixels' similar to stuck pixels. i've reached out to fuji and they say just run a pixel remap and that its totally normal. my issue is, i work on set with this camera, so its on and working for up to 10 hours a day for many days. remapping it every day isn't really ideal. since, from what i read. a remap is just filling in those hot or stuck pixels. seems less than i deal to me. so now what. i have a 96 mp camera?

@olfa w. i can understand how noise would be thought of here. but its too random to be noise, and its always there, shot to shot, once you see those hot or stuck pixels they're there. until a remap.

I get em on my gfx100s nearly every shoot. It is very noticeable when shooting on black. Another disappointment with this camera. It is very sensitive and when I run it tethered to an 13”m1 Mack book pro, I constantly have in camera software crashes using capture one.

Well as I mentioned above I was about to order a 100s.  I did.  It's FANTASTIC, but it does experience some hot pixels.  Not too many, but that was only after 5-6 months of (everyday) use.  I was away in the Yukon and Alaska for 53 days and with over 9,000 raw files I did notice some dead/hot pixels.  

Not sure what I'm going to do other than re-map.

GFX 100S - Tomatoes / tomahtoes, I call 'em "dead pixels." In any case, they're all over the frame. I marked a couple dozen of them on this image, only because I ran out of patience to continue. They're in shadows, highlights and everything in-between. However, they're one pixel in size, and not visible on 24" prints, even when only about half the frame is printed. BUT, I don't like it, and still don't have even one dead pixel on my 12-yr-old Phase One IQ-160 back.

What is "pixel remapping," and how do you do it?

    • I'm four months in and love my X-T5, no problems at all.  For me it came down to format choice, APSC.  The brand choice became Sony or Fuji as Canon lens selection seems lacking.  Then read up strengths and weaknesses of the two.  But physically looking at the camera made the difference.  I have XL hands and the Sony actually felt too small to hold.  I preferred Fuji handling but the big difference was the dials.  I could see how to adjust ISO, aperture, and shutter speed without instruction.  Took me back to days of shooting film.  I just wanted to use it.  I don't like wading through menus and I don't have to with this camera.  It has a ton of features I haven't used but I appreciate that I can go out and have fun, taking great stills, and learning the advanced stuff at a very slow pace.  I've only shot a couple videos and have no idea what to do with the histogram.  I'm not sure I care, love the camera.  As for 4 vs. 5, that's hard to say.  I don't want to video of myself so I prefer the tilt screen on the 5.  The resolution increase isn't a bad thing, I trim my shots quite of bit and more res helps with that.  I kinda wanted the latest and hopefully greatest.  But if the dollar savings is enough to help out your lens budget then go for it.
    • Sorry dumb question, I have it sorted
    • Here is a short segment explaining some good and bad things about each of the shutter types Fujifilm uses. https://fujifilm-x.com/en-us/exposure-center/types-of-shutters/ Your X-T10 does not have all of the different types, but give each of those it does have a try and see if you like them. Enjoy your new camera!
    • Why is the Monochromatic color item not available in the Image Quality menu on my X-T30II? Thanks
    • Like others have stated, it happens and can happen to any brand make or model. All industries are subject. I have had my X-T5 for 2 months and it is perfect. I come from Canon FF both EF and RF and Nikon for analog, all companies and segments with incredibly high QC rates. This Fuji is the same, from mechanical to software, top marks.  If you look for negative reviews, you will find them. Complainers are 10x more likely to voice an opinion than those satisfied.
