Does anyone have an idea how the B&W filter in the istDS2 might work? The various Sony cameras I've used allows for B&W, but the results seem to be little more than desaturated RGB - in fact, the files show up as RGB type files when edited in PS, and the B&W results aren't particularly good, showing a rather poor tonality and range. Are there different ways of generating a B&W photo with digi cameras? Might the B&W results in the istDS2 be RAW files, or something other? I realize all this may require some speculation ...
Kodak had a camera specifically designed for B&W, but I never saw any unretouched results from that one. Shel
