Q on Cassini pics

When I was a kid, I sent requests to JPL for pics of the Voyager
fly-bys, and got some pretty awesome full-color lithographs from both
missions.

Fast-fwd to present-day: All the pics from Cassini thus far are B&W.

I do assume that the pics from Voyager probably had color added after
the fact.. But are there no color cameras onboard Cassini?

All color pictures are a combination of three pictures taken through
different filters. (RGB)
Check out the JPL Cassini page for color photos of Titan.Also SpaceDai=
