The New York Times, which is known to have the strictest photo modification 
rules in the business, has no problem with RAW conversions. They do insist that 
jpegs arrive at the photo editors desk with exif data intact.

You're right. Shooting in BW is liberating. However, it's nice to be able to 
do so when I choose to.

I assume that you are shooting in JPEG. As it's pretty much impossible to get 
BW in Raw.

Menu 2 in the camera menu seems to have a few processing menu items that are

This is yet another reason why you don't want to shoot in JPEG.  

It's a lot easier to convert raw files in color to black and white, than it is 
to convert 
black and white jpegs to color.

Or (if arrow keys are set to change focus point) turn AF selector on the 
back down to AUTO, then Arrow right for entering picture finishing and then 
arrow right or left for setting the proper picture finishing.

(then don't forget to restore the AF selector to your usual position)

Re: K-5 Black White

Larry,

I've been on this list for what seems to be decades. I just don't post 
frequently.


When my assignment is to provide quick PJ shots, I don’t really have the 
time to play with RAW and then convert to the required JPEG. It's more like 
get it right in the camera and ship it without adjustments. Some editors 
actually consider converting from RAW to JPEG the same as modifications.

Interesting.  I suppose that in the film era they insisted on polaroids because 
converting from 
negatives to print would be the same as modifications.  :-)

But, if it's something that works for you, then that is what works for you.
