PIXEL MAPPING and dust reduction

The PIXEL MAPPING feature allows the camera to check and adjust the CCD and
image processing functions. It is not necessary to operate this function frequently.
Approximately once a year is recommended. After using the monitor or taking
continuous shots, wait for at least one minute before using the PIXEL MAPPING
function to ensure that it operates correctly. Dust reduction also works at the same
time to remove dust on the CCD.
