Another point on converting in Camera....If you are converting in Camera
then you are shooting JPEG's...at least that is the case with Canon......If
you using Canon DPP then the picture modes work.
 
It is generally best to convert in photoshop as a raw file.  Gives you a
whole lot more latitude with which to work on your images.  The beauty of
b/w is the longer tonal scale than color.   Throwing all of that information
away in the camera hurts.

Hi Joe,

The main reason I don't shoot mono in the camera is that I work both
color and mono.
Never-the-less, I do occasionally shoot mono. But changing settings in
camera is not a good idea for me. When I do make a change, I forget to
reset them and get into trouble.
