While there are, the result may not be what you want.  Typically digital 
cameras, use a technique similar to removing the color in PS. It's a 
linear process.  If you look at the response curve of B&W film, it's not 
linear, it often looks like an S, it better method, is to take the photo 
in colour, but think B&W, then later match the response curves to your 
favourite B&W film, then remove the color, you will get a more likeable 
result.
