Re: Convert to B&W plugins

2002-12-02 by Mark Hahn

I can't help you since I use Photoshop, but during a recent general 
surfing session I came across someone selling a "pro" B&W converter 
plugin for PS and was baffled why anyone would need one with the 
Channel mixer being so straight forward to use.  The big selling 
point was that you could select Channel Mixer settings that 
correspond to specific B&W filters and I could not help but wonder 
why anyone would want to limit themselves to just the standard filter 
sets... like going into the digital domain with its almost limitless 
possibilities and then limiting your possibilities to those that 
existed 50 years ago... hmmm.
