Hi Pablo,

This topic has been commented several times and is difficult give a response 
because they are not possible definitions, or other than observe the grey 
scale compression and try to reproduce it as best as I can. I use almost 
always Capture One 7 Pro, for me is a great software for processing B&W, 
sometimes I improve the finish image with a touch of Silver Efex Pro. I 
really don?t know, maybe my eye is instinctively educated for B&W.

Cheers
Lluis
