Digital BW, The Print

There is at least 10 times more detail in a neg than in a print.  So if
you want a lot of detail, you need to scan the negative. However, you
can get excellent prints from scanned prints, IF you have an excellent
print to start with. Much better than you would think. You need to
develop scanning and photoshop skills to do really nice work in digital
photography. Read all you can on the subjects.
