Bob, there are two ways you can do it, on the camera go into your white balance settings, go to creative style choose black & white, or upload the image take it to your editing program and simply switch it from colour to black & white, both look exactly the same whichever you choose.

Yes, I realise that but what I was wondering about is that Fuji cameras, for instance, will let you select the look of specific Fuji B&W films. I realise that you can manipulate manually both in camera or on the PC. I take it that you do it yourself to suit your taste in how the B&W should look for the image.

Yes, I do, portraits almost always look better in black & white, although when I shot in 35mm film I almost always used black & white film over colour.
