[Leica] IMGS: B&W

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

I really think and this shot illustrates it that they way to do black and 
white when your shooting digital is to use a digital camera or back.
Digital conversions done later have never quite made it for me. Once I see 
them in color I seldom feel like taking all the color out. I always know the 
colors are there. Shots I'd converted to black and white years later when I 
look at the original raw file again I end up keeping the color when I 
photoshop it again. 
I hope the time comes when I can get set up with a Leica monochrome or other 
digital black and white sensor and wow start investing in filters as I don?t 
know if I can find the ones I used to use. My default was the 060 B+W yellow 
green.  Is B+W  still in business it was owned by JSK Schneider? But I loved 
a darker green or red for sky shots. And others. But the green I used the 
most as they were the only ones which did not turn people in to creatures 
from another planet.

    And next.
    
    I'll have lots more B&W when I get to some of people working but they are
    usually such colorful people that I took far more color than B&W.
    
    TIA for any comments.
