This is where it gets confusing. Each pixel of the final image is formulated 
based on a cluster of individual colour pixels (RGBG) of 12bits depth each. The 
final 3 colour pixel is interpolated and its absolute precision will depend 
upon the precision of the algorithms used to demosaic the data.
