Phenomena Specific
CCD Image Sensors
The following phenomena that may appear in images are
specific to CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image
sensors. They do not indicate malfunctions.
White flecks
Although the CCD image sensors are produced with
high-precision technologies, fine white flecks may be
generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic
rays, etc.
This is related to the principle of CCD image sensors
and is not a malfunction.
The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the
following cases:
• when operating at a high environmental temperature
• when you have raised the gain (sensitivity)
• when using the slow shutter
Vertical smear
When an extremely bright object, such as a strong
spotlight or flashlight, is being shot, vertical tails may be
produced on the screen, or the image may be distorted.
Aliasing
When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot, they may
appear jagged or flicker.
