Just got an SX110 IS and while testing it out, I've noticed two hot pixels (showing redish in dark areas of the image) on images shot in very low light with 1 second exposures. Perhaps the most annoying thing is that when looking at the LCD in some indoor lighting situations you can see one of the hot pixels. Once you hold the button down half way and focus, it goes away.
I've done a fair amount of looking and it seems hot pixels are fairly common. I go back and forth as to whether I should exchange it and see if the next one is better. It does seem that if you do exposures longer than 1 second (1.4 at least) it will map out the hot pixels. This is pretty cool. Again, the most annoying thing is seeing it there on the LCD in some cases.
Thanks for any advice.
