Hello
I have a pentax ist D which I love, the image quality is good enough for my personal use, and i'm happy with my old pentax k-mount lenses. However, i'm dying to get back into B/W photography, and play around with using filters. Unfortunately, the pentax *ist D does not have a strick b/w setting. It does desaturate images however, it records the images with color information, which completely negates the filters I want to use. and a filtered colored image turned b/w does not have the same effect as a b/w photo taken with color filters.
is there a camera out there that will behave like b/w film when set to strick b/w? or am I better off shooting film and scannign negatives, because I have no room for a dark room in my house.
