Which channel clips is determined by the RAW conversion to RGB channel
data, which means that this is only a significant piece of information
in the camera when you're storing exposures in JPEG format.
Isnt RAW supposed to contain "raw" RGB data? If any of the individual
pixel sites, R G or B maxes out, it would be useful data. Maybe I dont
care about blowing certain channels (pre-bayer). I know that final RGB
data is a Bayer combination of the RAW data, but the RAW data is still
quite useful. I suspect, but cannot prove without some emperical data
that you will probably find that the pre-bayer and post-bayer RGB
histograms are pretty similar.
