Color from B&W: info for your amusement and consideration

The Empire that was Russia. Great collection of early color work. Here is a nice Boston.com article about that Russian photographer.

A very long thread in the Large Format Photography forum with some great information on the process. You may have to be a member to see the photos. You an easily join for free.

A French blog about the topic featuring lots of examples.

Early Technicolor processes worked in a similar way only using 2 color filters.

A PDF manual for an old camera that captures color this way.

A very nerdy write up on color filter arrays for digital cameras. It explains how color is made from a monochromatic sensor.

Another French site on the process.

Part of a book describing early color photographic processes. More on early color processes.
