Damaged sensor

To the right is a plain shot of a corner of my room to show a problem I just noticed of the CCD sensor. After 15000 photos, the sensor shows some wear and tear. It appears that 4 pixels on the sensor have been blown out for some reason. I gotta send my D80 in for repair. That would mean I am camera-less for 2 or 3 weeks.

The Mississauga repair centre opens from 8:45am to 4:45pm.

  1. The white pixels are gone! Last this afternoon, I took the camera in for service at the Nikon service center in Mississauga. They 're-calibrated' the camera. I have no idea what that meant -- it does not sound like the front desk person knew either -- but it fixed the problem.

    It is nice to have a service centre in the same city you live in. I believe there are only two service centres in Canada, one in Mississauga and another in Montreal.

Invasion of What?

What are these bugs? I've never seen them before. I saw them at my parents' place the other day. Lots of them in soil or grassy areas.
