Only if you shoot JPEG. If you shoot RAW, you can shoot in B&W, yet still retain all the color information. That's my preferred method when I want to create a B&W image. I have the benefits of reviewing in B&W to see if I need to adjust/reshoot at the time I take the shot, and I can still do full-on B&W conversion in post starting with all the color data, and the ability to apply any color filter I'd like after-the-fact.
