RE: [Digital BW] Re: B&W Dig Camera?? WAS: Is anyone REALLY...

Hi Rick,

The one I was referring to here is a Leaf Lumina.  It's a scanning camera
that takes Nikon lenses.  It's REAL 6M pixel sensor data, so with B&W you
get 6M pixels of real grayscale data, not converted Bayer pattern RGB yuck
foo data...

I also have a 7k scanning back for my Hasselblad, but I haven't done any B&W
with it.

Regards,

Austin
