It's a very cool thing and I've used it plenty in the past. a true black and white film mode so to speak. In order to get the "right" feeling you need to play with highlight and shadow contrast sliders inside SPP. When this is done you bring it inside photoshop and add some vignetting and maybe some extra contrast. (brightness/contrast) I hope this helps.

I am only able to find 2 ways,de saturate or change white balance to monochrome. Frankly neither option seems worthwhile and so i was wondering if you have any additional information about making B&W with this software. Charles Carl:
