Of course MF film is larger than 35mm film, that's why it's MF, but I do not believe that the lp/mm changes between zone III and zone VI. > Third, the 6 megapixel resolution is an interpolated resolution. That is not true. The luminance information in one shot digital cameras is NOT interpolated (except in the Fuji cameras), only the chrominance. Color information is not near as critical as edge information. You still get full 6M pixels of edge information.
