If you shoot in B&W alone you risk descending into another of those "gritty urban documentaries" so beloved of trendy photogs. You are capturing your memories, which I assume aren't just in B&W! You always have the option - or shoot both and decide later. It could be an interesting exercise anyway. Fuji vs M3? (OK guys no competition - end of discussion!!)
