Canon 70D sticky/hot pixel
Hi Guys
I own Canon 70D for about 6 months now. Have tested the camera well for Hot Pixels or Stuck pixels when I received it. Yesterday while doing a party event I observed a red bright pixel on the LCD in LiveView. First I thought it maybe a stuck pixel on the LCD. I changed to Video mode and the pixel was gone. Again I switched back and saw the pixel sitting on my LCD. I think this rules out any issues with the LCD.
I took some snaps at ISO 100 and 200 the pixel abnormality was not visible on the jpegs.
Later I took some pics at 15 secs exposure keeping ISO 800 and to my dismay some red and white spots exact 6 of them appeared on the pic.
Do you guys have any idea what I am facing. Why in Video mode the pixel vanishes.

I wish I only had 6 stuck pixels on my canon sensor, I've got a ton.
the in-camera jpeg engine should map out the stuck pixels, so you don't see them in the final jpeg picture, or video.
I you are shooting to RAW, then it's the job of your computer software to map out the stuck pixels, and you'll see them in the RAW image before processing.
that's my understanding but I've never had any hot pixels or maybe I've never looked close enough to notice any
Any idea how to handle them?
