@admad - i don't know how you noticed those little tiny dots. since it is only happening with slow shutter at 1s, my guess is that is residual light somehow. i don't know how you're getting a dark pic covering the lens with your hand cause at 1s, there is always light coming through somehow! i will have to try a completely dark room at night and see what it does. but i think the slow shutter is picking up light somehow, even the faintest bit, and that's what you're seeing. can't be dead pixels on the display as that would be black pixels. and since the spots are moving, doesn't seem like it's something wrong with the sensor. If it is the sensor, then taking a photo in a dark room would produce the same results and consistently same placement of the white artifacts.
EDIT: here is my dark pic. taken in a practically dark room. there was some light seepage from below the door and from the GFCI LED indicator, but otherwise it was pitch dark. I faced a corner and got as close as I could to minimize any light. taken in manual mode with 1s shutter, 0 EV, auto focus. Let me know if you notice anything cause I don't. Hope this helps! Maybe you can try a dark room/closet photo at night and see how your results are?

Can you post full resolution photo? With current size it's impossible to spot anything 
I noticed these dots on the picture I posted while watching it on my PC, at first it looked like a star to me, but then it had no light around it, like a one lonely pixel. That's when I wanted to further inspect the sensor. Since it's visible only in low shutter I don't really mind, it's just that if it's only my unit I would like to know |

sorry i didn't realize it only uploaded at low resolution 
try #2.. i think i did it correctly this time. If this isn't good enough, i'll try uploading to a 3rd party and linking the photo. I still suggest you try the dark room test too.

Thanks, I found about 3 spots in your picture. So it's probably some kind of minor sensor fault, well, it's not that important. |

XJ - did you really need to go to a motor show to take pictures of the emblems on your cars?

where exactly is "local"?
Nice Bentley crest ... you don't see those on their latest cars. Not even Jaguar pits their leaping Jag/Leopard/Panther on theirs for over a decade.

Indeed, on our Jaguar XE the Jag emblem sits behind a plastic bit actually, I think for protection.
Rolls Royce still have the Spirit of Ecstasy on their cars, and if you try grab it it flips back into its cover, really clever.

This is interesting news for me. I always wondered why Sony is putting less and less battery in their phones despite having the same dimension of some of their competitors. After all Bigger battery is always batter (most of the time).
Now I have a clear answer - Sony put safety first mantra unlike a certain company who produce explosives like Note 7. Sony uses Li-on Polymer battery instead of more generic Li-on electrode.
Quotes From the article -
"Sony's Li-ion Polymer battery uses a special gel that improves cellular resilience and safety, extending the life of the battery. The reason Sony shifted focus to Li-ion Polymer batteries is because of the many reports of fire and explosion, they want to focus on the safety and durability of the battery rather than high capacity. Li-ion Polymer battery can hold 80% of their original capacity after 1000 cycles of charging / discharging.
The downside of this tech are -
1. low density of storage power
2. higher manufacturing cost.

Yeah, when you pull the lady it quickly retracts into the bonnet but it can be knocked off, my friend (car hire company) said it's £10,000 for a replacement statue on his Phantom. |
