Hi all, when some of you guys are taking B+W of say, people/street/urban do you set your camera to shoot in B+W or just change it to that in processing?
Change it in PP personally, but Steve Huff uses/used an X20 to do B&W SOOC with some brilliant results. But, changing in PP allows you to use a colour shot if you want to. Worth a go for sure!!

Shoot Raw with in-camera picture styles set to mono.
That will give you a good idea of how the image looks in mono on the LCD while you're working, but saves the full colour Raw file so you have all options open in post-processing.
Edit: you can also apply coloured filter effects to mono in picture styles, if you want to preview what it looks like with say a red filter.
