pixels, fog, or lines) and unexpected colors may appear if you zoom in on

and distribution of randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, and bright spots 
are affected by frame size and rate (
0 68). Randomly-spaced bright 
pixels, fog, or bright spots may also arise as a result of increases in the 
temperature of the camera’s internal circuits during live view; exit live 
view when the camera is not in use.
