April 26, 2013 ============== Support for Apogee's preflash option is being added to help remove the latent bulk image artifact that is present in images on Kodak sensors when they have been exposed to a bright infrared source. The effectiveness of this hardware feature is being assessed. ... The support will appear in test variants after version 4.1 and should not be used for critical photometry until we have the camera performance in this mode fully analyzed. ...
