you cannot simulate color filtration without color information
you cannot filter balck&white film after development
no software can generate information the color information if it was not
recorded (even Silver Efex)
other cameras can do it because they see color information--the MM cannot
(as I understand it) record the colors
my understanding is that the MM sensor is color blind, it is NOT sensing
color information and throwing it away as we do creating B&W from color
images
