So, I kept hearing about how great the dedicated monochrome cameras were at making wonderful black and white image files so I got out an exacto knife and some sandpaper and shredded off the CFA layer from my camera's sensor. That wasn't enough so I used some acetone to strip off the AA filter as well. Now we were playing with direct pixels. That wasn't enough so I spent $12K to have someone re-write all the code in the camera and toss out anything that had to do with color post processing. Then I went for a walk. Look. The camera now does "art monochrome." Too bad I can't switch back to color....
Question? Do you think I might have voided the warranty???
Okay. So I'm just having joke. I didn't do any of those insane things to my SL2 camera sensor. I just set the Jpeg parameters to Monochrome HC (high contrast) and walked around shooting photographs of the buildings and sky. Seem okay to me. I guess I could goose up the contrast a bit more and pretend I bought a dedicated monochrome camera but what's the point?
