Download the CS3 beta, there is what at first glance seems to be a very good 
conversion tool for B&W.

It can be found at Image-adjustments-black and white.

Subject: [Digital BW] Lightroom Beta 4.1 - Where is the B&W Channel Mixer 
Conversion Tool?


I have just downloaded Adobe Lightroom Beta 4.1 and have been playing
with it.  I am told that it contains what is possibly a better tool for
conversion of an image to black & white then the Channel Mixer I am
currently using in CS2.  Problem is that the only conversion I see in
Lightroom is a simple Grayscale conversion button in the Develop module
under the Basic dropdown.  What am I missing here?

Thanks Gary,
I just did not realize that this options was not available until 
after the image was changed to Grayscale.

Does anyone else think this is a great way to adjust B&W images?  
Seems to me that it allows for more easy grayscale adjustments!

Thanks,
Bruce
