I was about to take some pictures of the blood moon using the R6 with the EF 2x III and EF 800mm f/5.6.
Everything worked perfectly until I removed the teleconverter. Then, the quick control dial stopped working. During that time, I was able to adjus...

A hot pixel. You can use RawTherapee or darktable to view the Bayer pattern before the raw file has been demosaiced (which may give you a different look).
The documented method to map out bad pixels from modern cameras like 5D IV and R5 is to run "C...
