Pixel mapping checks and optimizes the camera image sensor. If you notice unexpected bright spots appearing in pictures taken with the camera, perform pixel mapping as described below.
- Pixel mapping is available only when a Z mount lens or an optional FTZ II/FTZ mount adapter is attached.
- To prevent unexpected loss of power, use one of the following power sources:
- A fully-charged battery
- An optional EH‑7P charging AC adapter
- An optional EH‑8P AC adapter with a UC‑E25 USB cable (featuring Type C connectors at both ends)
- Portable chargers (power banks)
- Select [Pixel mapping] in the setup menu.
Turn the camera on, press the G button, and select [Pixel mapping] in the setup menu. - Select [Start].
Pixel mapping will start. A message is displayed while the operation is in progress. - Turn the camera off when pixel mapping is complete.

- Do not attempt to operate the camera while pixel mapping is in progress. Do not turn the camera off or remove the battery.
