Q. How do I enable Black & White?
A. If you open your D3100 manual and look up Black and White, it’ll direct you to page 154 which explains how to convert your color photos to black and white using the menu system. If you’re looking to simplify the process and shoot in black and white without any conversion process, when shooting in P, S, A or M modes you can activate the Black & White option by selecting theMonochrome (MC) setting inside the Picture Control menu. Once you’re inside the Picture Control menu, select the Monochrome (MC) option, then highlight the Toning effect and choose B&W. This setting will allow you to capture photos in black and white. If you’d like to switch back to color, just access the Picture Control menu again and select the Standard (SD) option.
