Defective Pixel

[Die Judicii]

Some of my optics have "Defective Pixel Repair"
Question : Not knowing if I've ever had any,,, Are they really noticeable, and how big are they ?

Dr Google only says they are red or green mainly,,, but says nothing of the comparative size.
So do they really grab your attention and say I'M A DEFECTIVE PIXEL, or do they slowly and insidiously invade ?

If they are green, wouldn't they be hard to pick in thermal sights where the light is mainly green to start with ?

size will depend on the resolution of the scope - no different to defective pixels in an LCD monitor

So how they'll appear is most probably as a constant bright spot in the scope, or as a constant black spot where the pixel is dead

have a look at stuff on defective pixels for LCD monitors as it will be the same principle

I've only had one defective so far (touch wood). It presented as a constantly "white" dot on the screen. Very small but very noticeable. Pixel repair function on the device I believe takes the information from all the surrounding pixels to make an educated guess at what the defective pixel should look like. Seems to work.
