I'm looking for more information about how the filters were removed. I've seen mention that Iliah has performed or experimented with it but I am unable to find very much at all except for the random forum post on how one would go about doing it. I'm also interested in learning how much light is won back from the color filters. I have a camera that i think would make an interesting donor for an attempt. Thanks for any information in advance.

Dear,

I'm working on a raw convertor (dlRaw). It should become somehow an alternative between ufraw and rawtherapee, but that aside. It's as much for the fun of it.

Like nearly all of those projects I did an effort around dcraw (making it behaving more as a library, less global variables, re-entrant, you know the stuff much better than I do :)).

While this is manageable, it is an unnecessary burden and your library has drawn my attention for :
- it does all of this more or less for me.

I wonder wether someone ever imagined to do the raw decoding on a GPU. As graphics card have tremendeous processing power barely used when doing "just" photo processing... And we might be able to get raw images decoded in no time !

Click on the thumbnails for Steps 1 through 3 to see the screen captures of the menues at 100% in a separate window.

Step 1 Connect the camera and open Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 application. Navigate to "Image Processing" tab. Press "Edit" button.

Step 2 Uncheck Auto. Set Sharpening, Saturation, and Hue sliders to "0". Check "Use Custom Curve". Press "Edit" button.
