GH2 Possible dead green pixel

[Zxander34]

So I went outside to do some photography and I noticed that there is a green pixel in the upper center. I bought the camera in november from Adorama though hopefully I won't have to return it. Any suggestions?

Also I can only see it in raw but after converting to jpeg it is gone.

What software are you using to read the RAW files ?

wel, i guess this doesn't help much. Why not export a 400% crop so we can see what you think is a dead pixel.

 

[Zxander34]

Yes that conversion doesn't show much of anything does it. I'll post up an enlarged image soon.

Also I am just using what ever is built in with my macbook pro.

EDIT* Anytime I attempt to convert the RAW files the green spot is gone. So I'm really not sure what's going on.

sounds more like a stuck pixel than a dead pixel. Dead pixels are normally black. Nothing there. It's also possible that when you're going from raw to Jpg that the re compression is bluring that pixel so we can't see it unless you do a massive zoom in and then export that.

Alright, I this happened to all of the pictures I took after I took one of the sun Not so sure that was a good idea.

Yeah, i see that. Definitely not a dead pixel. Looks like a stuck pixel to me.

Dunno if anything there will do the trick, but it's definitely worth a shot.
