so I am a little behind in the episodes (seeing as there are so many to watch along with TWiT stuff) so sorry if this has been fixed

there are these small white dots (2 or 3) in the bottom right portion of the screen - near the bottom of Kevins laptop and on his leg - I watch the HD versions of the show and have a 50" Pioneer Elite PRO-111FD so it is really good and I notice things a lot that others dont

it has to be the camera because it is covered up when the lower 3rd comes up and covers one of them - and it is not there with other cameras or inserts

anyone else notice this



I have watched other shows and they all have this in them - it looks like a dead pixel or something on the camera or a chipped lens or damaged cmos/ccd whatever

Yeah just a couple dead pixels. Could be dealt with easily in PP but the turn around time these guys are under, means I can live with a few dots!

not complaining - I was just noticing this for some time now and at first I thought it was my TV, but I know its not

I have said this before

I would watch rev3 stuff if it looked like a old worn out VHS tape, its that good of content

maybe the camera could be replaced under warranty or something, if they had the time to do that

just thought i should mention this

I was watching American Chopper and for some of the shots they had small white dots in the exactly the same spot as rev3 cameras - is it possible that they use the same cameras and they are defective in the same way?
