So I have an annoying problem that hopefully someone can chime in and help with...I've googled for hours but can't find a solution...here it is:
My sensor has developed a hot/stuck pixel that becomes obvious at around ISO 640/800-4000. A hot/stuck (white) pixel appears in the center bottom of the frame and it gets more noticeable as ISO ramps up from around 800 or so but goes away after ISO 5000+. I ran a black balance but all that did was trade the one hot/stuck pixel for another one more pronounced in the top right quadrant of the frame. I ran an exhaustive number of black balances and so far all it has done is swap the location of the stuck/hot pixel, they never fully go away regardless of how many black balances I run I end up with one or the other, the only difference being location. Not sure what else to try/do, this is rendering the camera useless for shoots due to the obvious/noticeable nature of the pixel.
