Yeah but if I'm just taking color pictures and converting to black and white I'm not thinking in black and white, and I'll keep the current state where in 98% of the pictures I'll just leave them as color pictures. Not just that, I'll take pictures based on colors like I do now.
EVFs are actually helpful for a project like this, because I think in most of them you can set the EVF to monochrome.
However when taking pictures I kept thinking... why am I even doing this, with it being summer and with all these beautiful colors out there?
Maybe I'm just not a black and white shooter. I love the color of the sky, the various nuances of greens in foliage, the flowers...
