I know that a lot of folks really like Nik Silverfx pro for BW conversion. I have seen a lot of good work done with it.

Aug 13, 2013 09:39 | #4 Silver Efex is by far one of the best. If it leaves too much of a silver effect, its because you are not adjusting your settings correctly and not a fault of the application. R3 | R6 II | 8-15L | 15-35L 2.8 | 28-70L F2 | 85L 1.2 | 70-200L 2.8

The presets are there to give you a starting place. Everything is adjustable from a bright silvery look to a dark sepia look and so much in between. Adjust it to your liking and save the settings. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

I definitely prefer it to the Channel Mixer in PS, although they are similar. The fact is LR has a few more channels available, and I like the way the sliders work better too.

Alan Since the OP was asking about CS5, and may or may not have Lightroom, it could be helpful to know that what Alan is talking about doing in Lightroom can be done in Camera Raw in CS5! Tony
