I've had an Olympus PEN E-PL1 for a number of years now and enjoy using it a lot. Never a hiccup or problem and just a fantastic sensor. Anyway, I took some shots for the SOTD thread and as I was looking at the exposures in Photo Shop I saw some hideous pixel ghosts - three of them scattered in various locations. I froze and immediately thought my little friend was slowly dying, or something. A quick web search pointed me to the "Pixel Mapping" function on my camera and now all is well.
So, can someone here tell me what pixel mapping does? If I have to use the function does that mean there's a problem with my sensor or another part of my camera? The camera also made some weird sounds as Pixel Mapping was running and I was wondering what that was, too.
Thanks.
