Olympus are probably no better/no worse than other manufacturers. At least
Leica give you the real b&w option, though most of us would find it difficult
to justify the price.

Subject: Re: [OM] Digital B&W Photography - A Revelation
As I've come to learn in these past few weeks, the E-500/510 are very good
platforms for colour and "casual" (meaning no filter) B&W. For detailed B&W,
both the camera and the Olympus software fall very short of the mark, and other
venues need to be explored in order to enjoy the full creativity potential of
B&W.
I won't dispense with Olympus cameras as I have full confidence in both
the film and digital cameras of theirs that I have used. But whoever wrote
this B&W conversion firmware and software needs to be taken out to the woodshed
and left there.
