Dead Pixels In New Camcorder
So I got my new camcorder yesterday and I've been playing around with stuff and i tried recording my campfire response tonight using the new cam. To my horror, the two misplaced green and red pixels in the camera LCD actually effing recorded with the image! So now I'm stuck with the misfortune of seeing if I can get a replacement in the next few days or something.
Anybody know what causes stuff like this? Like too much heat or something on the lens?
*Sigh* I'm going to have to record a less elaborate version of my campfire response on the Kodak.

you got a lemon, pure and simple. If it not only appears on the display, but actually records (as pixels) the problem is in the all-important ccd chip.
i hope you have a warranty on this device. If not, call up customer service and get them to solve your problem. unless you bought it used, i'm pretty sure it's in the vendor's best interest to replace it and eat the cost.

LOL @ earwax. I have never been a big fan of Pioneer headphones. The last Pioneer headphones i purchased were the SE-NC70S and in about three months the right side died out and the battery life was crap. What I do like about pioneer is the sound q...
Well I have the 2006 80 GB classic & the 32GB iPod touch both sound qualities are great but I must agree about the classic being better. I've been getting alot positive feedback about Sennheiser so I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info!
