/p/, I've a question.

Is there any reason to take a picture in B&W on a digital camera, when one can just shop the colors out?

What I mean is, is there any advantage other than not having to go into Photoshop to taking a picture in B&W on a digital camera? If the model matters, I've a Canon S3IS.

Pic not related or mine.

Some cameras use the extra colour space to give more bits of precision in B&W, but for most theres absolutely no advantage.
Some photographers might try tell you otherwise, but its really a pretty silly thing to do when you're shooting in digital.

I love that Sony ad, my dream is to launch thousands of bouncyballs down a San Francisco screet.

Is that where it was from? I saw it on /b/.

Does anyone know if the S3IS does the extra-bits-of-precision thing?

Search for Sony Bravia. You should be able to find your answer there. They have videos up for it, but I remember that I had to have an updated quicktime to view it and attempted to install it but failed... and apparently you need to install iTunes at the same time too which I did successfully.. Garbage I tell you. I never did see that commercial but I really wanted to hear the sound of all of those bouncy balls hitting an clueless vehicle...

if you just want to desaturate it, photoshop can do that, but to emulate b&w film you have to desaturate and delete the red and blue color channels.
