You could have just set the camera to black & white! I think the second one is very effective.Quote:

yes I know but at the time I didn't want to take them in black and white...these pics were adjusted which we couldn't of done If i had taken them straight from the camera in the comp...and they would of looked very washed out!Quote:

Not true. If you shoot in RAW format. All a B&W image is is a change to the colour space and white balance. Try it shoot an image in RAW and then open it in Photoshop and change it to colour. Of course if you shoot JEG its all locked in as B&W.Quote:

Just another reason to shoot in RAW format.
either way it doesn't really matter though especially if either way you can change it to the other!
so what would be the benefit of me shooting it in black and white over colour and converting at a later date?
Ummmmm.... none:angel:Quote:

these pics were taking in black and white at cooma with a red filter on to give me a more dramatic sky....these how ever may of been taking in JPEG I really cant remember now but pretty sure they were
other than that I really feel there is no difference regardless of the way you do it

Playing with the camera's settings is the only other option as you say. If you want some good information have a look through some of the Flickr groups related to the D80.
I like the one of the two tents, shame you missed the bottom corner.
Yeah I hear what your saying about the tent but I had only owned my camera a couple of months I was very much still learning, well I still am.....but that was just experiementing on the day
I looked at flickr last night but you have to sign up to yahoo to get in...which I dont want to do! or at least thats what it looked like
I'd forgotten that about Flickr as I have a pro account. Couple of good ways to learn about the D80 are to get the eBooks by either Thom Hogan or Peter Inova
