## tint
Tint the image using the provided chroma while preserving the image luminance.
An alpha channel may be present and will be unchanged by the operation.
### Parameters
- `rgb` **([String][1] \| [Object][2])** parsed by the [color][3] module to extract chroma values.
- Throws **[Error][4]** Invalid parameter
Returns **Sharp**
## greyscale
Convert to 8-bit greyscale; 256 shades of grey.
This is a linear operation. If the input image is in a non-linear colour space such as sRGB, use `gamma()` with `greyscale()` for the best results.
By default the output image will be web-friendly sRGB and contain three (identical) color channels.
This may be overridden by other sharp operations such as `toColourspace('b-w')`,
which will produce an output image containing one color channel.
An alpha channel may be present, and will be unchanged by the operation.
### Parameters
- `greyscale` **[Boolean][5]** (optional, default `true`)
Returns **Sharp**
## grayscale
Alternative spelling of `greyscale`.
### Parameters
- `grayscale` **[Boolean][5]** (optional, default `true`)
Returns **Sharp**
## toColourspace
Set the output colourspace.
By default output image will be web-friendly sRGB, with additional channels interpreted as alpha channels.
### Parameters
- `colourspace` **[String][1]?** output colourspace e.g. `srgb`, `rgb`, `cmyk`, `lab`, `b-w` [...][6]
- Throws **[Error][4]** Invalid parameters
Returns **Sharp**
## toColorspace
Alternative spelling of `toColourspace`.
### Parameters
- `colorspace` **[String][1]?** output colorspace.
- Throws **[Error][4]** Invalid parameters
Returns **Sharp**
