Hi Canon Rumors Community,
As a long time lurker and first time poster I have to say thank you very much to all of you for sharing so much useful information. It has helped me spec a future camera system that will blow the pants of what I have right now. And that brings me nicely onto a shot I took last night with, and don't laugh, a 7 year old 300D with it original 18-55IS kit lens. The image is a JPEG straight out of the camera and has no post processing. You can see an over exposed moon in this 30 sec exposure and the lights from a passing plane (continuous and flashing lights creates an interest effect!).
Now onto the question: If you look a bit more closely (click on the image to do this), in amongst the trees and across the sky you will see some random purple/red and blues dots. One does not have to pixel peep as the pixels are so big already! Does anyone know what is causing these random pixel colours? Are they broken, permanently-on pixels, like one gets on LCD screens, or is my sensor just very noisy after all this time? I noticed that some people get very worried about dust creating dark spots in a image - take a white photo to see it. Well maybe they should be just as worried about this - take a black photo to see it.
