The CCD should last at least a couple of years...maybe longer. It all really depends on usage.

Is it expensive to change the CCD?

Alamak! I got the CCD fixed but the LCD at the back of my DC can see some dots... sigh. I am wondering whether should I get it fixed as well?:angry:

Hmm... I think if that is the case, the good old film slr is still better.

Jayan, the picture output is fine but I can still see some dots on the DC's LCD. Any idea what happened?

Is it that no matter how u shrink/enlarge/move the image in playback mode the dots still stay in the same place on the LCD???

If yes, this means the LCD has dead/stuck pixels.

WAH!!!! This is damn problematic liao leh... They managed to fix the hot pixels within the DC but I happened to discover the LCD pixels only after I brought it back home.:cry:

It's ok for me....I get 1 or 2 in my EVF and LCD too....but as long as these don't mess with my pix I can live with them.

With millions of transistors on a chip barely 1 cm across I think it's ok....even LCD PC monitor also sometimes got dead pixels.

So ur CCD hot pixels prob fix liao lah???
