Which is better - Convert Color to BW or Shoot BW?

2008-06-24 by Native Texan Photographer

Hilly, 
you accidentally put your question in another persons post.  I don't
know the answer myself, but would be interested in finding out.  My
guess would be to shoot in color and then convert to BW.  I would
assume that Photoshop would give you better tonal range, and QTR would
allow a better print.  However, I'm not positive about digital, and I
haven't shot BW for over 20 years.
