In all these discussions, there is no mention of the impact of the lens on the printing 
resolution,  For the example Canon 8 mega pixels digitals with an "L" lens vs a Leica 8 
mega pixel, digital with Leica lenses.   Let's say both cameras printing 11 by 14 B&W 
prints, which camera would give you a better print?
