Yes, it properly supports monochrome DNG and disables (and hides) tools that are not applicable such as demosaicing, CA correction, highlight recovery, white balance, etc.
I didn't know such firmware hacking was available. I'd been waiting for the GR Monochrome for years but it's a bit expensive for me.
I don't know if the firmware mods are public but I saw one conversion service offer it when I was researching. If I can find the link I'll post it here this evening.
Thanks for the quick reply! I'm sold. It's punching way above its weight class with those features. Have to try this out tonight.
