Weird lines with Canon 1100D

From another topic: http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...07#post1099507

Kevin, I read many posts in many foruns about this weird line ou similar weird line from bright stars.
None shows a tip or solution. Nor Canon has solved that problem with repairs.

The main issue is with bright stars and a vetical line. I didn't see it with my canon, up to now. It seems don't be my problem. See the photos I did to test the position of Coma corrector because of reflex, some time ago.

I saw that this horizontal black line is present in other capture of M83 that I did at July, 03.

If it has origin on cable USB ... I can not do many things. The cabel is long, and must be long. I can try the ferrite, but ... I really have doubt if it will solve the problem.
Althougt my horizontal line is different from vertical line from bright stars. It worth try !

Did you get some information about it or you think that ferrite will solve the problem ?

As there isn't any tip at the foruns to solve those weird lines... It seems to be a problem of camera model: Canon T3 - 1100D has and is problem !

As this line only appears when I strech too much the photo ... perhaps it will not be a big problem.

My old age says: if you can not win ... surrenders !

First photo: Canopus - single frame - ISO 6400 - 16 seconds - RAW converted to JPG

Second photo: Canopus - single frame - ISO 6400 - 16 seconds - DSS - streched in Photoshop.

note: all problem has a solution. When a problem hasn't solution... it is not a problem. It is a real fact: immutable reality.

So, I haven't problem with my Canon. I just have a Canon... 1100D ... with an weird line attached !
