robstu Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share #3 Â Posted September 14, 2014 Hello, thank you for the interest.. however page 152 and 212 both refer to videomodality only - I am baffled (to say the very least) that it is not possibile to capture photos in B&W.....

thighslapper Posted September 14, 2014 Share #6  Posted September 14, 2014 just go to Film Mode in Menu  tap the one you want .... rather inconsistently you don't need to press set ..... just exit .  you can alter the contrast and sharpness ..... which does need a 'set' to lock it.  I've not played with this before .... but the results look very good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 15, 2014 Share #8 Â Posted September 15, 2014 Try the High Contrast Black & White. It's very special. Â If you also set your camera for "DNG + JPEG", you can have the best of both worlds. Â DNG= color (raw) JPEG= high contrast b/w (if you have the film mode set to that). Â Enjoy your T!

Le Comte Y Posted October 5, 2014 Share #10  Posted October 5, 2014 Sorry for the "newbie" question here but ... What is the advantage to shot in B/W compared to B/W conversion in post processing ? I've been told that B/W shooting in numeric camera may offer a beter utilisation of the pixel's matrix ... Thanks for your imput  Cheers  Yvan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thighslapper Posted October 5, 2014 Share #11 Â Posted October 5, 2014 probably none ....... Â but you will get B&W review images on the camera, so if you are intending to convert a lot it will give you some idea of whether what you have just shot is going to look ok or not ......
