Ric,

No, maybe I didn't make myself clear enough. I know the sensor is not
color sensitive but if the images can be modified after the fact in
Silver Efex Pro 2 why can't the Leica engineers modify the software to
do the same thing? In camera, like a slew of point-and-shoot cameras
do already, and give us a JPEG with the modified image. Seems like a
no-brainer to me, but then I guess they'd lose all that profit from
filter sales. I just don't think I'd want to slap ANY filter in front
of that kit, Leica-branded or no. Just MHO.
