The "Film/Filter Adjustment" PS action available at the following page is quite good too, it eliminates over-saturation and allows dynamic adjustment of the filter effect via the "hue" slider in the middle layer. http://www.nickgallery.com/web_pages/technical%207.htm The B&W effect that I am seeing using PS CS RAW converted 16bit wide gamut looks very impressive, add "grain surgery" and you'd have 95% of even good photographers hoodwinked IMHO.
