I'd like to say that I only ever shoot RAW (.ARW in Sony-speak) and convert to mono, but I don't always. On the odd occasion I like to use the in-camera high contrast mono process as well as the rich-tone black and white process. The latter takes three -/+ev variants and merges similar to an HDR process - but in mono is far different to colour HDR. You don't gat garish colour, for one.

In fact, I'm going to the Campbelltown Steam & Machinery Museum for their open day today and will take the RX1, locked in one of the mono JPG modes, and my Contax T2 film camera for a bit of fun. I'll post some from the RX1 afterwards By the way - I still love my OM-D, and use it for much of my street work with the 75mm f/1.8 attached. Hard to beat!

I have (much cheaper) the earlier 45mm variant. Great for portraits. Almost lives on the camera. Have a billion shots of our two year old.
And I'm still in love with the 7.5mm Samyang fish-eye. What fun!

Hi Chris,

Some lovely shots and the ones of the light through the trees are exceptional.

Compositionally, I would have loved to have seen the face of the ice cream
vendor in the last shot.

Stanley Kubrick originally got his eye in by roaming the streets with a camera in
his teens and twenties, eventually getting on the payroll of Look Magazine.

Thanks very much Gary. The ice cream vendor was being most uncooperative, so I made him irrelevant. Them's the breaks - which is why the original title for that photograph was "Do you have any change?" - making the girl on the left my central object of interest as she reacts to the question from the girl buying and starts rummaging.

Natural response is wow! #4 is full of character. Trees in mist, evocative.
