Just to add to what others said: a six megapixel camera has 6 million sensors, but 3 million are 'green', 1.5 million are 'red' and 1.5 million are 'blue'. The RGB image you get out of the RAW converter has 6 million red, 6 million green and 6 million blue pixels i.e. the RAW converter just makes up 2/3rds of the data and hopes you don't notice. -- Bruno --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
