Hi @Hothoundz recently experience this as well, the adjustment vary between 3px - 8px. Did you find other solutions than replacing it with ion-img. Any experience when using img for ion-slides?
The cause of the blank is due to the default display property value of img elements, that is, display:inline, I changed it to block, it solved the problem.
(disclaimer: this is chatgpt answer inspired solution. But I verified everything it said.)
