Bob, i have my X30 set tp yhis: My favorite B&W settings on the Fuji cameras for most situations are:
– Film simulation: BR (B&W Red Filter) – Sharpness: +1 – Highlight Tone: +1 – Shadow Tone: +2 – Noise Reduction: -2 This will give you a fairly contrasty B&W look when exposed correctly. from this website: http://weshootfuji.com/2015/04/03/how-to-get-great-bw-results-from-your-fuji-x-camera-and-become-a-better-bw-photographer/ Dave On Sun, Nov 8, 2015 at 5:25 PM, Bob W-PDML <p...@web-options.com> wrote: > I went with some friends to the Lee Miller exhibition at the Imperial War > Museum today - it's a superb exhibition and I recommend it very highly. > > I took my Fuji X20 with me because one of my friends has one on my > recommendation but couldn't figure out how to set it to black & white only, > which is all she's interested in shooting.
