I think Chipmod would agree with you Glen
i.e this mod will never be as good as a mono chip with the microlens. They say its only a stop gap measure until newer CMOS mono chips become available.
They allude that this mod will be more efficient behind narrowband filters, compared to its OSC version looking thru narrowband filters. But the mod is less efficient in RGB broadband compared to the OSC.
It also seems that QHY has given the go-ahead for Chipmod to do the whole QHY CMOS range of APS-C and full frame cameras.
I have yet to see any images taken with these new cameras that have been modded, until that happens I will reserve judgement.
