    here is what i like to do when converting color images to B&W. First, while still in RGB mode, i expand the canvas and add 3 boxes. 1 filled with 255 Red, 2nd with 255 Green, 3rd with 255 Blue. Then I go to the channel mixers, select gray and then I adjust the mix so that the RGB boxes that I made (which will appear in grayscale at this point) are all distinctly different in tone (a nice dark/nearly black, a nice midtone, and a nice white or nearly white). It works quite well.
