Hello,
I am i bit puzzled looking on the following effect observed in version 8:
While the GrayScale output of
Image[Raster[{{0, 0.2, 0.4}, {0.6, 0.8, 1}}]]
Image[Raster[{{0, 0.2, 0.4}, {0.6, 0.8, 1}}/2]]
is scaled according to the applied factor 2,
once I run
Image[Raster[{{0, 0.2, 0.4}, {0.6, 0.8, 1}}, ColorFunction -> Hue]]
Image[Raster[{{0, 0.2, 0.4}, {0.6, 0.8, 1}}/2, ColorFunction -> Hue]]
or even
Image[Raster[{{0, 0.2, 0.4}, {0.6, 0.8, 1}}, ColorFunction -> GrayScale]]
Image[Raster[{{0, 0.2, 0.4}, {0.6, 0.8, 1}}/2, ColorFunction -> GrayScale]]
the output is identical since some Min-Max-Scaling seems to be applied.
Any ideas how to circumvent this kind of unwanted scaling?
BTW, replacing Image[] with Graphics[] works as expected, but I just 
wanted to go the newly introduced way to directly obtain images from 
rasters.
Thanks for your help - Ulf-Dietrich
