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-8P AC adapter connected using the supplied UC-E25 USB cable (featuring Type C connectors at both ends)
- Portable chargers (power banks)
- To start pixel mapping, select [Start]. A message is displayed while the operation is in progress.
Cautions: Pixel mapping
- Do not attempt to operate the camera while pixel mapping is in progress. Do not turn the camera off or remove or disconnect the power source.
- Pixel mapping may not be available if the camera’s internal temperature is elevated.
