whichever the kind loading the camera the best for quality caption

Since I'd be shooting digital, it wouldn't matter

I have to say the black and white would look more dramatic. The effect will be stunning.

Oh, definately B&W! Go with the drama!

THE SITUATION:
You are in Kwa-Zulu Natal, St. Lucia to be specific. There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photo-journalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing into the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.

THE TEST:
Suddenly, you see a man in the water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer... Somehow, the man looks familiar... You suddenly realize who it is... It's Jacob Zuma! You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever. You have two options:
You can save the life of Jacob Zuma or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the country's most powerful men!

THE QUESTION:
Here's the question, and please give an honest answer...






Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?
