Interesting, because where you said "some" above I would have thought "most".
So you're saying that something with a strong red component still registers significantly in the top plane?

Yup. This just came up a day ago in another forum....

Take a look at the source code for dcraw , the function foveon_interpolate().

Mind going through what it does? It's not a quick read at all, not very well commented, and has a lot of calls to other functions that themselves aren't commented.

Also kudos to whoever did

#define CLASS

and put CLASS in every function declaration. Why not do

#define RAINBOW_UNICORN_TRAILS

and put that at the end of each line?
