I have 3 channel black&white dpx file which is of size X mb.
i want to convert it into 1 channel because all my 3 channel are same. i want to x'fer the file on dedicated network so i want the size of the file should get reduced to 1/3 of X mb.
i used below command.
imagemagick > convert -separate 3channel.dpx 1channel.dpx

Pl. help on this.
