Hi I have just splashed out on a 70-200 is usm lens, and on my first trial with it I was shocked to find that some of the shots were in black and white. My camera is set on adobe rgb, so am I doing something wrong or, Have I got a faulty lens?

The lens comes in two types: mono and colour, I hope that you haven't bought the mono version?

Perhaps post an example of your mono result?

If I bought the mono version surely I would not get any colour and I had my camera set on adobe RGB I thought this was my mono image but as you see I don't know how to do it

If you tell us what model of camera you own, then perhaps someone who owns the same model can check through their menus.

The example shots may well be shot in colour. Some subjects just look as if they're monochrome.

Where did you take the photos in question ?

If it was in Northern England that may well explain it because as many Southerners will tell you we still don't have colour "Oop North"

Nah, that's colour TV.
Heck, in some parts you haven't even got steam radio yet
