Some cameras though have the option to shoot both raw and jpeg
Some cameras will let you display the Raw in a particular manner on screen. Nikon call this Picture Control, not sure what others call it. You can set it to say monochrome but the actual raw image has all the colour data it just doesn’t display it on screen, but will show it in all colour once in a post processing piece of software.
Well said. The best option if available.I'm sure others will have opinions, but mine is to shoot b&w in camera. It will help you to "see" in black & white, understand tone, and (hopefully) get less distracted by colour.
Some cameras though have the option to shoot both raw and jpeg, and (with my Fuji anyways) will display the jpeg on the screen whilst storing both raw & jpeg to card. This is kinda the best of both worlds as your image reviewing will be of black & white, but you'll still have the raw to play with later.
I have been wondering which would be more beneficial for black and white street photography - to shoot b&w in camera or to shoot RAW and convert later.
What do you think?
Raw & jpeg ... way to go ...
Why not just use RAW?
