Interesting stuff, I have been keen on having a go with the monocromes but hasnt due to shooting raw exclusively, did a small try earlier this winter for BW fun at about high noon, but ended up with the raw files in colour, even though BW was what was in the viewfinder. Anyhow, horsing around with the fresh GX880 today, I ended up hooking the camera to the PC for file transfer, first time ever I have done that I think.
Come to proccessing time, and by some notion I wandered off into the Profile settings, and Lo and Behold, for there I found a heading named Camera Matching, containing the 7 profiles from the camera, including Monochrome L and Monochrome. :confused-95:
A quick spin through that, with a couple of photos that was slotted for the B/W treatment anyhow, produced these two:

Never knew that it was an option, but am somewhat keen to hook up the other cameras to see if those also embeds their profiles into LR, will be interesting to see if they do.
I am not much of a techie, so it is somewhat magic, and that without have to burn-sacrifice a goat as well!
I really should try to see what those picture taking computers we call cameras these days, actually are capable of. I tend to use them as I used cameras back in the analog days.
