mmoore46 Posted January 25, 2013 Share #1 Posted January 25, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Greetings -- I've been setting my film mode to Standard Black & White. Playback shows B&W and when I preview uploaded images in iPhoto, they appear in B&W. (See bw.jpg, attached.) But when I actually open the image files in either iPhoto or Photoshop, they appear in color. (See color.jpg, attached.) Have I fumbled a setting? I'd be grateful for any tips or advice. It's not the biggest problem in the world, obviously, as I can convert images to B&W in Photoshop, but it would be lovely if I could skip that step. Thanks so much, in advance.

mija1789 Posted January 26, 2013 Share #2 Posted January 26, 2013 Welcome to the forum Did you configure your D-Lux5 to shoot "raw" by any chance ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted January 26, 2013 Share #3 Posted January 26, 2013 The option to shoot B&W applies to the JPEG images only. The RAW format images will be in color, anyway, because the RAW format just records what the sensor sees. Hence, there will be both colored and B&W images if you set the camera to store both JPEG and RAW format images. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmoore46 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share #4 Posted January 26, 2013 Philipp and Michel, thank you both very much for taking the time to respond. I am grateful. And, yes: it looks like the RAW setting resulted in this unanticipated (for me) consequence. Problem solved -- thanks again! Best, Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
