This looks right up my alley. Does it properly support true monochrome raw DNG files? I.E., cameras that don't have a bayer filter and don't require a debayering pass. I'm shooting a Pentax K3 Mark III Monochrome, although Leica has a couple true monochrome cameras and there are services that will de-bayer cameras and modify the firmware to achieve similar ends.
- CarVac 7mo agoYes, it properly supports monochrome DNG and disables (and hides) tools that are not applicable such as demosaicing, CA correction, highlight recovery, white balance, etc. I didn't know such firmware hacking was available. I'd been waiting for the GR Monochrome for years but it's a bit expensive for me.
- TehCorwiz 7mo agoThanks for the quick reply! I'm sold. It's punching way above its weight class with those features. Have to try this out tonight.
- TehCorwiz 7mo agoI don't know if the firmware mods are public but I saw one conversion service offer it when I was researching. If I can find the link I'll post it here this evening.
- buildbot 7mo agoAlso there are the Phase One Achromatic backs. Which Lightroom does not even support :(
- CarVac 7mo agoI need to fix Phase One support in Filmulator. LibRaw has some additional processing steps required that I didn't manage to figure out last time I worked on it.
- buildbot 7mo agoLightroom doesn't even process IQ4 150 (RGB) files correctly either, there's in back calibration that is missing, resulting in a bunch of lower right corner amp glow(?). Capture One with the same back is fine/the back went to Japan to get repaired only a few months ago and has a brand new main controller board/calibration...
- CarVac 7mo agoI've got iq180 and iq4 150mp working… it doesn't like iq3 100mp though.
