Richard,
Are you sure about that? I mean, I think I know what you mean as far as how
the individual elements of the CCD are arranged to capture various light
frequencies, but by the time the image is translated into a BMP, I'm fairly
certain that the specific CCD encoded info would be translated into a
standard format. Even if the file contained Red-Green-Red-Green-Red-etc-etc
on one line and Blue-Green-Blue-Green-etc-etc on the next line, to a device
reading the file, it will still look like a series of bytes which would
interpreted it as R-G-B-R-G-B-R-G-B-etc. I suppose if that happened you'd
see some really strange color shifts.
My guess is that when the solid state CCD chip is designed, the designers
realize that the green sensing elements are less sensitive than either the
red or blue elements, so perhaps they bias it towards gathering extra green.
But I would bet pretty good money that when they transfer it from the camera
into the computer, the resulting file (if it is 24 bit) will have the
R-G-B-R-G-B pattern we would expect to see in a bmp file.
Am I way off base on this one?
