Re: If I upgrade from my K5 ... lenses and IR conversion question

For demosaicing(sp???) to work, the firmware has to take into account the color filters over each photosite. If you could remover the Bayer filter, (which I think is impossible, based on my knowledge of how it's applied), the camera would need completely rewritten firmware, possibly even new

Yeah, you would be stuck using physical colored filters instead of tweaking the B virtually in LR/PS. Like back in the bad ole days of B film. You only get that chance to get it right with the physical filters, lots of chances with the full Bayer filtered image. That's a big negative. On Mon,
