I see the main benefits as being the 20% discount on servicing, the SRS 10% discount on accessories and the ability to post unlimited images in the Gallery.
No doubt others will see different benefits, but in any event it is helping to support things.

Broadening that to any lens set to 50mm-ish does bring in those who only have zooms, so no-one should be excluded.
I think that's what nipper was saying, if I've understood the intent.

The sensor always sees in black and white, the colour being introduced by placing a Bayer filter over the sensor. So then the camera knows which pixel represents which colour and with what brightness level.
At that point the colours have to be interpolated and smoothed to give a colour photo image. All this happens before the RAW output is available to use. So there's no such thing as a truly undoctored RAW file, a lot goes on before it's ready for use.

Would we then not be back to destroying some resolution to remove moire with software?

I have been given a totally wrecked Sper A, so we'll see how much it will cost to have it put in order again. It's on its way for a quote now.

If it hasn't worked, click on report problem at the bottom of any page and let IT know the details of what you've done so far and what you would like to do. They will be happy to sort it out for you and also check that the system is working properly.
