So, if you set your camera to shoot in B&W (monochrome), choosing Camera Settings would honor that and you will see that a monochrome profile has been applied.

Camera Settings: The same as Adobe Default except that a profile will be selected to match your in-camera picture style selection (instead of Adobe Color).

Adobe Color is the default profile, and most settings are zeroed out (with the exception of the sliders in the Detail panel).

Adobe Default: The same Adobe defaults as we’ve had in the past.

Within the Raw Defaults panel you have three basic options for the Master control: There you will find an entirely new panel called Raw Defaults. The new system is found in the Preferences, on the Preset tab (the old menu option under the Develop menu has been removed). This will not affect previously imported photos (unless you click the Reset button). Once you install the update your old custom default settings will not work on newly imported photos (or when you click the Reset button).
