    Photoshop is seriously all you need to convert colour to b&w. If any step in the process is digital then you may as well use p/shop as you are gonna lose a massive amount of detail/quality anyway.

    This is unless you have an excellent printer who has a very good knowlege of filters/tones etc.

    Many people are saying how digital has changed the way they work. This is only true if you are not after the specific qualities that true photography has. If you know your stuff, you will know the difference.

    Quite frankly, I have done all the colour - b&w and vive versa, sometimes to astonishing results, but nothing is ever as good as trad photog I can promise you.
