Yes, it's normal for the onboard mic to pick up zoom servo hum during very quiet clips.

thanks, sphew I thought something was wrong.
2nd question.........My LCD Screen in the top right hand corner there is a black spot like a pixle is missing, is this common? I just got the camera less than a week ago. I really dont want to send it back to Washington where I purchased it im in CT. I think Canon should pay for shipping charges since is a defective product. But anyhow is this common? Or anyone else have this proble? |

Dead pixels on lcd displays are not "common" but they're not uncommon, either. Only you can decide if this is a sufficiently significant problem to warrant Canon service. If the camera is new and still under warranty I'd suggest getting it repaired.

IMHO: Back to shop, get a replacement. Shop sends it back. They aren't worried . . I wouldn't bother with a repair . . In the UK I would have had it back in a trice! The shop wants to show you how "friendly" and accomodating they are .. SO they can sell you more gadgets! It aint just about what you just purchased . .it's all the "other" stuff they know you'll need to be buying . .IT WORKED on me!
Grazie |
