[BioC] Question on displaying color photo as Greyscale in EBImage

[Gregoire Pau]

Hello Evan,

As mentionned in the EBImage vignette, colorMode() changes the image 
representation mode but not the image itself. On the contrary, channel() 
modifies the image. This is documented in ?colorMode.

Try: example(colorMode) and example(channel)

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

Greg

Or does it do something more sophisticated with gamma corrections or weights based on the image format?  I could not find it in the reference manual.
