Digital is seducing us all into the world of colour, because you can do things with colour now in LR etc that you could only achieve with b/w in the darkroom. RAW is a boon, and a curse. In the old days the slides were accepted as being limited and we "settled" for the ones that happened to work and shrugged at the near misses. Now we expect to "save" any image. The people will be just as strong in b/w, but the record of their clothing will not be as accurate. Scanning slides is like cibachrome to me: when it works its just fantastic and when it does not work you will never save it.
