Hi Everyone: I bought an ebook entitled Black and White in Photoshop CS4 & Lightroom: A complete integrated workflow solution for creating stunning monochromatic images in Photoshop CS4, Photoshop Lightroom, and beyond by L. Alsheimer & B. O'Neil Hughes.
It's good enough so far and helping to fill in knowledge gaps (big ones) WRT black and white rendering--skills I hope to improve this year. Anyway, there's a section on the Channel Mixer in Photoshop and how to use said feature to replicate various film stocks--even a chart is included with the channel mixer values, as shown below. Being a Lightroom user, can I just use the *black and white mix sliders* in the develop mode--that is, dial in the Red Green and Blue values suggested in the chart, then zero out the values for Orange, Yellow, Aqua, Purple, and Magenta? Or do I have to use Photoshop for this approach? Here's the chart. I hope to do some experimenting this afternoon.
