One of my last pics with the 50 lux before I sold it a couple weeks ago. Considering buying it back now haha.
Question for those that convert to B&W. Going to do a wall of prints of my kids in B&W. What profile do you recommend using? Adobe monochrome? Cobalt? This one is Cobalt modular.

I guess I read that wrong. No, I don't use other people's profiles, I have my own presets & adjust the tone curve and/or the RGB curves to taste.
M10-P + Summilux 50 Asph
You are using a profile whether you know it or not. Most likely it is one of the standard Adobe profiles. If you look near the top left of the Basic Section of Lightroom you can see which one that is being applied. If you click on the drop down list you will see a "Browse" option. Click on Browse and you will be presented with a list of installed profiles. In that list there will likely be one from Leica specifically for your M10-P. You may want to try that one. If not, you may want to install it.
You will still do your standard Lightroom adjustments after the profile is applied.

Absolutely Steve, I'm familiar with profiles. My point was I don't pay for Cobalt, etc as the member with the query had. I'm not really a fan of the manufacturers profiles either, which is why I use a preset and then adjust curves etc to taste. But sure, I suppose I technically start with an Adobe profile, but it's usually a ways from it when I'm done.
