Looking to do some black n white photography, never really done it before. Is it best to use the camera settings "Canon 60D" or in lightroom, although I am learning this also or both?

Thanks

Denny

Click to expand...

But don't just click on LR's B&W presets, they're nothing special. Read up on which channels suit what kind of subjects.

You might find this thread interesting. There is another similar one, but I can't recall exactly where.
