Canon G7 >>> dead pixels (white/blue)

[amoergosum]

I noticed that there are more and more dead pixels on my G7 (on the jpegs>I guess a problem with the sensor). There are around 6 white dead pixel and 2 blue ones. You can see them in the crops. My G7 is still under warranty. Is the Canon service able to repair this?

Thanks for your reply.
Well...I wouldn't mind a G9...:)

These are inevitable but go ahead and send it back under warranty. Most likely they will just program the camera to remap the bad pixels.
