Monochrome2DNG1.0.1 Build 35

Most cameras available for purchase are color cameras, which differ from a black and white camera through the color filters that are applied to their sensor. Color cameras can be converted into a monochrome camera by removing the color filter array but, without a modification in the camera's firmware, the resulting photos might experience quality loss.
