Black and white photos don't have the same degree of clarity as color photos.
False.
Black and white images get a lot of hate, but they’re sharper than you think.
While some folks hate black and white, I find there to be special magic to it. Of course, not every black and white image is super sharp, but compared to a color photo of similar variety, they’re far sharper. Believe it or not, the best way to see how sharp your lens can be involves converting your images to black and white. Don’t believe me? Look at history. Acros, T-Max, and Tri-X are all super sharp black and white films. The images made with them are far sharper than any slide or color negative film out there. With digital, we became enamored with color. We also were all about fixing it in post-production to make an image appear sharper. Here’s the crazy secret: even if your color photo is sharp, it’s going to look sharper in black and white. Don’t believe us?
IT’S SCIENCE
The way the story goes, the deeper the blacks are in a photo, the sharper it will appear. This is due to the way the eye sees things. The deeper the black level is, the more that your eye tends to ignore it. To that end, your eyes then focus on whatever else is in the scene. It’s why black backgrounds work so well. When mixed with sufficient lighting (not necessarily high contrast lighting) it can make a scene look even sharper. What first comes into play here are what’s called specular highlights. These are little lights that open up details in a scene that you weren’t able to see before. A flash will do this far better than any LED. The science of that has to do with flash duration, but that’s for another post.
Black and white photography is super sharp. It's tough to beat it. In fact, that's backed by science. The deeper the blacks are the sharper it looks.

You can't just make baseless claims and expect to not be fact-checked, like Trump simply claiming whatever he thinks up on the spot and repeats it until his followers believe it is fact. But unlike Trump supporters, reasonable people look at the evidence. You have no basis in fact to make this claim. It is false.
