Not so fast pardner!

Before you go shootin at my Conestoga.

A close associate and sometime shootin pardner who uses a Canon 1D has 
had several recent incidents with moires when subjects were wearing 
particularly troublesome patterns.. Users of the original Nikon D1's had 
some problems as well..

You can't interpolate and NEVER have problems, the software is 
guesstimating. (Unless you shoot successive images with the same wells 
picking up different colors - and that's just not very useful in 
anything but motionless subjects)
