Advertisement Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 Hi Vincent Douce, Take a look here new M8 bw France. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted April 6, 2022 Share #2 Posted April 6, 2022 Yes. You can generate a rather good B&W JPG. When you have the camera you will find everything in the manual. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianman Posted April 6, 2022 Share #3 Posted April 6, 2022 Hi Vincent, Congrats on your new M8! It's probably best that you post questions relating to your camera in the M8 sub-forum. There are also B&W dedicated threads in the photos forum where you can post your work! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pintpot Posted April 9, 2022 Share #4 Posted April 9, 2022 Welcome Vincent. M8 is a great camera. It will do IR photography very well with an appropriate IR filter, do try, as Jaap says, the Jpegs will be fine. However I preferred to shoot colour RAW (DNG) and covert in lightroom after, I did mostly B&W & IR on my M8 - you will love it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
