Firstly, the EX2F is one of the very few cameras that has little or no compression of RAW files, which gives a very clean image. Shoot RAW, convert to 16-bit tiff in Samsung's converter, post process in whatever suits you and change to grayscale, even in free FastStone. This shot was taken RAW with my D700, converted to 16-bit tiff in ViewNX2 and then into grayscale in FastStone.

I use ADOBE DNG converter. Does the Samsung converter produce better results?

Did not open the C.D. yet as I still can return the camera if I am not satisfied with it. Right now I am using Adobe Elements 11. Will have to try FastStone. I do not covert from *.SRW to *.DNG. I just use Elements 11 to convert from *.SRW TO *.JPG.
