Shoot in colour, then convert to b&w in post processing. It's by far the best way.

Try downloading this.....

US D50 manual - www.nikonusa.com/pdf/manuals/nopri

You can't print it (well, not easily - I'm sure there are ways round that!) and it appears to be from the US site, but I guess that the camera doesn't change too much between US and UK.

If it fell off the back of a lorry it must have fallen onto a very soft verge if it still works!

there are no settings on the D50 to shoot in Black and White, only way is to shoot in colour then use picture project or PS to convert to B&W

if, as i hope, you mean you bought it 2nd hand - fairy nuff.

if you mean you bought a dodgy/stolen/hot camera - you deserve to be unable to work it, you muppet.
