I use these to get rid of the distraction of color on landscapes. Newer cameras with EVFs (including the M) will display B&W if set via menu to write a BW jpeg along with the RAW. Some (not sure about the M) will allow you to define the color filter to use in creating the jpeg, so you will see that effect in the EVF also. Is that what you were asking??
