True- but the green sensors are generally wide band.

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).
I suppose I should say that my real issue is with folks who are continuing to take pot shots at digital cameras based on conjecture and complete lack of personal experience. Or think they have discovered some great original idea of a technical shortcoming that makes a DSLR useless or inately flawed.
My only claim has been that I'm getting better results on my 1Ds than with film in the 67, with the sole exception of APX25 in 1:100 Rod.
YMMV!
