My point was that if you remove all the filters then all the pixels would only be looking at tone/birghtness.
I think I'm out of my depth, all I can say is that a black and white TV gives a better picture than watching a black and white film on a colour TV.
On topic, I think the only advantage of a B&W sensor would be pixel count, which itself causes noise problems, which need more processing power to compensate...
I'll stick with film for mono and the occasional PP conversion thanks.

Yes, the K100D Super is still a great camera that can take top-notch photos. And has scene modes and stuff for beginners.

The second button does nothing on DSLRs but it is an alternative if the price is right.

I had to learn to cook on an AGA though .
If it's hot it'll cook anything, if it isn't hot, have a salad!
Last nights curry was spectacular.
We visited a new(ish) resteraunt in Saltaire which actually has a Michelin star!

Well deserved too.
Unlike our local curry house that only has Michelin tyres, on the cars I may add...

Dribbles it thought, eyes go glassy, expression goes vacant.
Mind, I'm off out for a curry now so...

Didn't see any, our guide reckons it was too wet and they were in the caves hiding.
Still, we got some dressed domesticated ones when we came home, very tasty.

My good lady brought two home for the kids when they were much younger.
"Don't worry they're both female" she was told.
Seven years and numerous generations later we finally got rid of them when the central heating failed in the middle of winter.
never again!!!
Oh yes!
They kept escaping and making their way into the attic, where we sleep!

The Pentax is small, light, a pleasure to use.
The Hoya is heavy and cumbersome in comparison, and although a faster lens, doesn't have the same IQ on digital!
I also have a couple of M42 135s that I keep meaning to get rid of....

I bought a generic one from eBay for a fiver. Works with just about every camera on the market. Cheaper than the cost of a new battery!
Again it's a generic one and works perfectly. It's also cheaper to replace if I lose it (as I found out!).
