When I was looking for a decent method to convert GRB to mono, I came across this a while back:

Recently at ImagingUSA2003 in Las Vegas, Gary Rogers of R9 (the brains behind Septone) showed us one of the workflows for Grayscale conversion of RGB images that he uses. We found it to be far superior to the standard conversion and thought it would be helpful to share it.
Step 1. Flatten Image
Step 2. Create New Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer with the following properties: Mode: Saturation Hue: -180 Saturation: -100 Lightness: +100
Step 3. Convert to LAB Color. Choose the Flatten Option if given.
Step 4. Open the Channels Window and delete Channels 'A' and 'B'
Step 5. Convert to Grayscale.
Congratulations! You now have one of the best converted images known to man...well, it's very good anyways...

Cheers, Cotty
