Hot pixel canon t3i at DVinfo.net

I just recently notice I have a hot pixel on my canon T3i. Anyone else have this issue. Its more noticeable the higher the ISO I use. I have tired the senor cleaning, but it is still there. Any suggestions.

Anyone send theirs into canon for repair (USA) and know how much it costs? Wondering if it is even worth sending in for repair or if I should consider replacing it with a newer model or go full frame. Of course if I do go full frame I would have to replace a number of my lenses and I don't have the money for that right now. But I dont know with the camera being out of warranty if it is worth getting it repaired considering the price of the camera has dropped so much.

Actually that did help. The instructions on that needs to be updated to say you can only clean manually when your camera is in manual photo mode. When I first tried it I could not find the clean manual option, only the clean now option, which did not help, which is why I was thinking I would have to send it in. After posting the question yesterday I did finally find how to get the clean manually option which helped. Thanks for the link.
