If you are shooting a scene illuminated by a red light source only one in 4 pixels will register an illumination value, information is lost (except in the case of Foveon sensors). Look at Kodaks own brochure for their DCS760M monochrome camera, they compare a section of an image shot on a mono sensor and colour sensor of the same pixel dimensions. Detail is much lower for the colour image, detail is sacrificed to capture colour information.
