It doesn't get rid of them, just 'maps' around them so when the final
image is generated it ignores the 'bad' pixels. You don't really get a
1:1 image pixel for pixel in a digital camera. It actually builds the
image from a grid of CCD pixels which have filters over them to respond
to red, green, or blue light. It's one of the reasons digital cameras
have a delay after tripping the shutter - it's not only the storage
speed!! It actually has to build the image.

I am clueless. What is Automatic Pixel Mapping and how does it get
rid of dead pixels?
