note that there is a ****load of overlap.

Watch thou lingo, Sir! That s*** of overlap is simply an effect of the
top layers being filters for the ones that's below. ;-p

that's not why. theoretically, red light goes to the bottom, but light
is random and that doesn't always happen, plus silicon is a bad filter
anyway. it's actually rather amazing that they got it to work at all.

and since its response is not the same as a human eye, you get weird
colour casts and metamerism from converting, plus a lot of noise from
the sensor.

interesting idea, but not very good in practice.

Well, it doesn't have that physical spread of the color elements of the
photosites that you were grumping about earlier in the tread.

where was i grumping about that?
