Video - Convert to black and white

This training video demonstrateds how to create striking high-contrast monochrome images using Elements 5's new Convert to Black and White menu. This tool works by mimicking the technique of placing coloured filters over the camera lens to emphasise different tones and colours in the resulting black and white image. The Convert to Black and White command performs a similar job to CS2's Channel Mixer to enable you to create professional looking mono prints.
