B&W Conversion and Simulating B&W Filters

[gmitchel]

My "Tip of the Week" for this week demonstrates how to use the PS Channel Mixer dialog for B&W conversion.

I know, there are lots of tips and tutorials on the technique already. Well, this one offers a set of Channel Mixer settings to simulate various B&W filters. I was not happy with the few I tried (Fred Miranda, etc.), so I sat down with a corrected image of a Macbeth ColorChecker Card and created my own settings. I also updated my TLR B&W Conversion action set to include quick B&W conversions using these various filter settings.

Says Mitch was "User is banned from forums". I must have missed something. :-( That sharpening script was great.
