You can't really compare digital vs. scanned film on a strict megapixel basis because as you scan film at higher and higher resolutions what you're getting is more and more grain information and less and less image information. A digitally-captured image of a lot fewer than 90 megapixels will be better than a 90 megapixel image from scanned film. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
