Thank you guys for your replies so much!! :)
I think you are pretty right...not to mention the hassle of expecting the new one and if it works properly...blah blah blah.....

The funny thing is that i first noticed the hot pixels on a usual photo;p

But GOOD NEWS XD
I did the mapping.....
You know the remove the lens....put the cap on.....set to manual mode.....manual cleaning in the settings....left for 30 seconds and turned it off......Im telling you it definitely id voodoo XD
THEY ARE ALL GONE!!! :D
:/ the question is whether they will be back or if anything else pops up (finger crossed and hopefully not)
Thank you once again soooo much!!!! :D

Yep, at 200% mag I actually count six pixels that are acting up. Hot pixels are normals...you just can't put a million of these things down and not expect some bad ones.

If that image represents the full image I think you will find that it is within Canon's tolerance. Give Canon a call before returning. To be truthfull the next camera might be worse and your seller will only exchange the body a limited number of times.

The other thing I would do is use the camera for a week and then recheck to make sure it isn't getting any worse. By the way, on virtually any normal photograph you likely won't even be able to find them visually.

Agreed. I only found mine when I shot a blank wall checking for sensor dust. Never would have noticed them in a photograph, if I didn't already know where to look. One pixel is pretty damn small.

I had to remap my T1i shortly I got it. It's been about two years, maybe more, and I have not seen the problem return. My 60D is over a year old and no problems. Good luck.

Yes. Hot or stuck pixels are a part of every DSLR. You may have none, 1, or hundreds of them.....

If you have "none" , then how exactly is hot or stuck pixels a part of that DSLR ?

If my friend scored a zero ( 0 ) on a test, and I scored 20 times higher- didn't I just score a zero as well ? Sorry.. Could not resist.

iVos.. i only find them to be an issue with long exposure pics, or night shots. With long exposure shots (60 seconds or longer), i can get 10's of them. Clone tool. ;)

I read that twice before posting it. Sounded good to me! My wife always tells me not to proof-read my own writing. Apparently, she is correct. Thanks for the laugh.
