We have published a article earlier that Cicala and Aaron Closz of Lens rentals found a serious issue with sensor of recently announced Canon 750D and 760D camera, there are several small spots can be seen on the sensor of 750D and 760D DSLRs and the good news is only 30% of the models are affected by the issue.
Take a look what imagine resource said….
Probably the first question to answer is how much these flecks will affect your photos. The answer seems to be not a whole lot, and if you’re shooting at f/8 or f/11 and below, you probably won’t see them at all.
It is not clear where exactly the dots are located. IR found…
[…] that the white flecks were in fact somewhere inside the optical stack; the shifts in focal distance mentioned above showed the flecks to be about 1.7mm behind the front surface of the stack, and about 2.5mm above the surface of the sensor itself.
The dots are visible after a detailed examination in image your … and it doesn’t appear to affect pictures too much. To check your sensor, put a bright light on the camera sensor from different angles if your sensor is defective then dots can be easily seen by the naked eyes. If you do not see them, your Canon 750D is not affected. If you have Canon 750D / 760D with the sensor issue return it to Canon for replacement.
