[Leica] Phase One Achromatic+

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

Well, I guess the question is why this would provide a better BW image than 
RGB 
conversion? Not being an engineer, I don't know the answer to that.?I do 
know 
that?some thought the BW image provided by the M8 with?no IR sensor cover 
provided superior BW images, but, even as an owner of an M8, I wasn't 
convinced 
that you could SEE a difference.

BTW Frank, I got the used , 5 year old?Aptus 22 (4056 x 5356 or a multiplier 
of 
about 1.2 longest side)) for a pittance; about $3k. Sold for $25k new... 
1,100 
actuations.?Works on all V bodies except the 2 series. About the same price 
as?next-to-pro-level Nikon or Canon?body..

But I'd love to have one :-)
