Do you know what OviV, I have an old EOS body, so old it's the first EOS model, sitting around collecting dust. And since I love B&W I might as well use it for b&w film.

Thanks for the idea!

Oh, and I'd love to hear what people say about your question.

Thanks again

Why not use the dSLR? :? You can then mix the channels to get the BW image you want.

Doc,

I still like to take BW on Film. I don't think you can reproduce the same effect on DSLR (I have tried many techniques). Besides I need something for my Film SLRs to do.

:D

You may assign the important role of gathering dust. Or waiting for your dSLR to magically explode :lol: :wink:
