    It usually isn't that simple. usually you'll need to do some color conversion after you shoot. Ex: the jpg conversion engine usually makes the image an abysmal orange-toned which looks great when you convert it to black and white:

    When the pic is RAW, you might need to adjust some levels. Also, the 40d has pretty good ISO performance so you can crank it up a bit instead of having a longer exposure. but generally, the filter is pretty dark (which is different if you actually convert your camera, then you can just "point and shoot") and you need to either crank up the iso or have a longer exposure as fast lenses can only open up so-much.
