Black-and-White Photography
In M-REC mode, photographs can be taken either in color or in
black-and-white (in A-REC mode, only color is available). Photo-
graphs taken in black-and-white have slightly better image quality
than color photos.
To switch from color to black-and-white or vice-versa:
1
Turn the mode dial to M-REC.
2
Press the MENU button to display the
shooting menu, then press it again to view
the second page.
3
Using the zoom buttons (▼▲), highlight
B&W.

Press the shutter-release button and
choose YES (black-and-white mode) or

Note
In black-and-white mode, the settings in the white-balance menu are not
available.
The chosen setting will be in effect whenever the camera is in M-
REC mode. When black-and-white is selected, a check mark
appears next to the B&W item in the shooting menu and the view
through the monitor is in black-and-white.
