An obvious idea. I am really surprised that it took that long for someone to market it and even more that it wasn't another brand. I would have expected Nikon to come up with it.
While Markus complains about the sliders in the RAW converter being gone, one has to keep in mind that this one has the resolution of a 36MP bayer sensored camera when using a green filter and a 72MP bayer camera when using a popular red filter. As usual, you gain some you loose some.
B&W enthusiasts are used to screw in their colour filters at the taking stage. I wish it well and would wish someone else, who is in a lower price regime of the market, had the courage to come up with something like it.
