Ok ladies please don't think I am stupid cause I really am not, though sometimes I do question myself! GGG! Anyway I have a new camera, its a Nikon Coolpix and for the life of me I can not figure out how the heck to make a picture black & white. Is it the camera or is it on my computer that I do this? Also what picture software would you go with, I am using paint to edit my pictures and I using windows to import them off my computer. I am so use to Kodak cameras. The verdict is still pending on if I even like this camera.

In the menu of the camera, is there a place to change it?
I use Photo Shop, and I can change them to black and white there too :D:D:D
I rely on my adult kids to show me the tricks/tips to my new electronic/computerized purchases LOL What takes me hours/days to figure out, takes them minutes/seconds :roll: :lol:

I have looked all thru the camera and even started reading the manuel and can not find anything. Boy I sure need a kid here to help me on this one. Photo Shop may just have to check that out.

User's Manuel and something called ViewNX2
I need something easy please. I just think my mind is going right now, cause when it comes to this camera it is so gone!!!

I just got a new Nikon Coolpix S9100 this week. For mine, to change to black and white, you have to change the dial on top to "Effects" mode, and select "High Contrast Monochrome". This lets you take pics in black and white, or you can also edit them on the computer as others have said. Hope this helps!
