Digital BW, The Print

All depends on the subject matter, Moreno. I have the Canon EOS 1N, and
the D30 can equal the sharpness of Provia film scanned at 4000 DPI, for
CLOSEUPS. I have side by side prints that show that.  (at 12x18 inches).
The D60 will, of course be much sharper yet.

Some subjects will be better resolved by film, others by digital, others
make no difference at all.
