You seem to believe that putting a 22-bit digital signal processor in the data path somehow affects the need for truncation of the data from the sensor. That isn't true. Either the sensor+ADC combination is capable of delivering more than 12 bits of signal (in which case truncation will be necessary somewhere), or it isn't. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
