Digital BW, The Print

Sam,

My only DSLR is a Canon 300D, with a variety of lenses.  Most of my 
photos tend to be scenic/landscape, which is a detail-rich subject; 
portraits, etc. are obviously much less demanding.  My ultimate quality 
reference for film is my Contax G.

I'm happy with my digital images at 6x9", sometimes a little more.  A 
12x18 never looks sharp to me, no matter what tools I apply - detail at 
that size is clearly 'pretend'.  Again, that would depend on the 
subject.

Scanned film prints at 12x18 rich with detail, and could probably go 
quite a bit larger.
