Title: B&W RAW video
Post by: Nachelsoul on May 28, 2013, 10:26:16 PM
Is there a chance to get B&W RAW video recording? With less information I asume we can get more resolution, especially for SD cameras, I hope there is a chance. Thanks for the answers.

Well from my understanding raw video is like raw stills. That is the raw sensor data fed to a file. For BW it would have to be processed and would no longer be raw data.  This is what happens already with stills or video with profiles. For stills for instance the way it works. Is you take a picture it creates a raw image with sensor data.  It applies the profile or settings you have as a jpeg then throws out the raw data.  Video I believe would be the same so the output file would be a *.mov file.  Atl east that is the way I understands it would work with raw video if it is anything like stills.

You've had it since they day of RAW Videos first release.

Simply remove Saturation or hit V in Camera Raw or Lightroom and process as you wish.
