If you know how to convert color photos to black and white properly with Photoshop, any digital camera is a good black and white camera. Even the old 1.3 megapixel Kodak NC 2000e was a pretty decent black and white camera for newspaper reproduction. Nice tonal range, and resolution just about adequate. Now, with the right knowledge, you can covert color digital files into beautiful black and white images, and with the right printer and inks, can pretty much match any 35mm black and white out there. If you have the skill and calibrated system. I know that's a lot of ifs, but the point is, it's possible.
