Right. This gives me an RGB image.
I thought you were talking about a way of opening the sensor data
directly, grayscale 16 bits per pixel. My idea was to use this, plus a
bayer pattern, to investigate purer ways to get B&W images from the
istD.
So far I've had limited success by opening the file
1. K15.3.5
2. A*85 1.4
3. 1DmII
4. 1995 M.Y. Classic Range Rover Vogue SE 300 Tdi Auto in Niagara Grey
5. Qool QDA-700 Palm OS smart phone
6. Weber Gallatin mandolin with custom sunburst finish
.5 of these items have one thing in common

Hi Juan ...
Open PS Camera Raw and open RAW image
(I just clicked on the file)
Click on OK - File opens in PS window
Use File > Save As
Choose TIF or PSD from drop down menu
That's all there is to it. Works for Nikon NEF Files as well, and probably
others.
