B&W RAW Lightroom Preset
Here is the baseline preset I apply to all of my RAW files for when I convert to black and white. Some contrast, a hint of grain, and some clarity to give the images some pop to them. Nothing fancy, nothing over the top, B&W done in compliance with ethical photojournalism.
The Preset is for Lightroom Only and it comes as an .xmp downloadable file.
