I got hot pixels...

...at least two really bad ones and possibly a third. I say really bad as I didn't go looking for them, they showed up in an image taken with a 1/8th shutter on my brand new 40D. Never seen anything like it on my 20D.

Here are the two little nasties at 100%:

Not acceptable. I'd return for a replacement. Hopefully it won't be too much of a hassle

Where'd you buy it from? I'm pretty sure Canon can remap out bad pixels, but i'd just ask for a replacement. I haven't tested my 40Ds for this, but I don't use shutter speeds longer than 1sec because the people just won't stand still long enough

Got it from AC, only two weeks old. Not sure how often it will be an issue on normal day to day stuff.

I take it you upgraded both 20D's?
