Do you really need to shoot B&W at all? Are you going to be personally printing the B&W or will they be sent out for print? All my stage work I now shoot using the *ist D with great success. Some images I post process as B&W others the colour makes the shot and I don't have to fart about with two cameras in the heat of the action.
