Well they call their helicopter “Sky King” so it made sense, but the part where they were monologing “this is very dangerous – we have a highly trained driver. You shouldn’t do this but we can”… and then they hit a parked car. I looked for the Youtube cut of it but I’m sure they had it yanked. It was embarrassing.

Comment on Night Panorama – The Revenge of the Stuck Pixel by kap0w

Hi Martin,
I tried multiple solutions that are supposed to map the stuck pixels and effectively turn them off – there are several software solutions you can use in post-processing. I didn’t have any luck but if you can get them to work and if you only have a few, that’s probably practical.

I tried all sorts of “folk remedies” that supposedly get the sensor to look for issues and map them out internally, but none worked – I don’t know if this works on some models but not others, but nothing worked for me.

Eventually I called Canon support and they advised me to send it in. Even though I was out of warranty (and out of grace period on the warranty), I sent in a VERY specific explanation along with the camera. I included printouts of the issue and assured them that I baby my gear and this is a clear manufacturing error and to their great credit, they replaced whatever needed replacing to get it working.

In summation, if you have a whole row of stuck pixels, I doubt you’re going to find any satisfactory resolution short of sensor replacement at the factory.
