I did not say you could not get a nice BW picture from a color negative. I
said that to get the best possible BW print from a color negative it has to
be exposed differently than
IMHO, a negative that will make a supurb BW print will only make a mediocre
Color print, and one that will make a good Color print will only make a
mediocre BW one. This is because you need higher contrast to get a dramatic
BW print, and lower contrast to get a good Color print. The above presumes

Greetings,
Your right Herb, and I'm quite sure that in future digital camaras will have
a switch to select infra red modes I hope that it will show the
