Are the filters such as red, yellow or green built in? Dennis
Asked by: Dennis
While the K-3 III can apply digital filters, as there is no RGB filter on the sensor, the camera only records light intensity without any colour information. If you need to adjust the colour rendition before you take a photo you will need to use colour filters on the lens.
