Here are the results. Last set of results were taken with AWB, keeping camera facing light source, normal sharpen, normal contrast.
As Rob suggested, I changed to WB,sharpness,contrast, time is 10sec, M mode. I took two sets of reading one camera facing light source and other in a dark corner. (Note: In all cases mount cap was present) Camera facing light source(mount cap on) ------------ [DeadPixelText] Version=1.0 Description= FileType=TIFF NumBadPixels=100 0=Dead,0,0,255 1=Dead,1,0,255 2=Dead,2,0,255 3=Dead,3,0,255 4=Dead,4,0,255 5=Dead,5,0,255 6=Dead,6,0,255 7=Dead,7,0,255 8=Dead,8,0,255 9=Dead,9,0,255 Result: 6MB/6MB Camera facing dark corner(mount cap on) ------------ [DeadPixelText] Version=1.0 Description= FileType=TIFF NumBadPixels=100 0=Hot,0,0,208 1=Hot,1,0,206 2=Hot,2,0,206 3=Hot,3,0,206 4=Hot,4,0,207 5=Hot,5,0,207 6=Hot,6,0,207 7=Hot,7,0,207 8=Hot,8,0,207 9=Hot,9,0,208 10=Hot,10,0,207 Result: 0/6MB I have sent the files to Rob.
