Hi, I am still trying to figure out what is the most flexible and powerful method for converting and editing color images in B&W.
For the most part, I have been working in RGB, using the B&W adjustment and further tweaking the image with an HSL and sometimes a White Balance adjustment, both placed underneath the B&W layer. It works great.
But now I am experimenting doing the same thing in LAB. I don't quite understand if I should use the same approach as I do in RGB (described above) and whether the B&W and HSL adjustments work in the same way in LAB as they do in RGB. Or if there is a better way of doing the conversion and editing when working in LAB (by better I mean more flexible and powerful).
I would appreciate any insights you can share on this topic.
