    Hi! I recently got a Canon Rebel T6, and for some reason, there's a small green, pixel-like speck on the screen that wasn't there when I got it. Any ideas as to what this could be?

    Welcome to the forum. David. This could be several things and the first question is does it show up on the images when it is not in the camera. some times the focus points are shown on the image but not part of the image itself, this happens to me on my 60D, check your settings. Second question does it appear when you change lenses.

    David, It is beginning to sound like a sensor issue, direct your problem to the site moderator, Johnsey as he is knowledgeble in that area. Just click on his name and this should lead you to him.

    I don't have photos at the moment, but there's a little green pixel that shows up, both before I take the photo and after
