Hi,

selecting a black & white pic (NEF) out of my libraby converts the image automatically to a colored pic. How get I my original back? Using filters or b&w conversion shouldn't be the solution because there is already a ready-to-go pic.

Thanks for your help! :)

  Your photos come up colored because Luminar opens RAW versions of them. In order to get the B&W version, open a photo, add RAW Develop filter, and in the White Balance dropdown select a profile. The profile will be called Camera Monochrome or something like that.

  Hi, thanks!

  I added the Develop-Filter. But there is only the option "As Shot" in the dropdown menu. Or is it the wrong section? Sorry, just started with Luminar.

  It looks like you have a jpeg and not a nef file there. If it were a nef, you'd have RAW Develop.

  RAW Develop is not in my filter list. Only Develop.

  Maybe it's a nef from an unsupported camera? There's a list here: https://macphun.us/luminar2018-supported-cameras

  Oh, well. The D3500 is not added so far.
