Why is the size of the image data captured with a color camera the same as that captured with a monochrome camera?

Since the image data captured with a Bayer array color camera is raw data before color conversion, the data size is the same as that of monochrome image data.

You can convert the raw image data into color image data by using the color conversion filters included in the Sentech SDK.
For instructions on how to use the color conversion filter, please refer to the “SaveAndLoadImage” sample code.
