I believe that. I've rarely shot Velvia, but I know it's reputation.
However, that puts the *istD in pretty good company.

i have found that Velvia scans at 4000dpi, good technique, and top
quality lenses are still better in detail, but that anything less than
the best technique and lenses and the *istD is better, when using the
same lens.

Shoot RAW with your *istD and convert in PSCS at the highest
interpolation setting. This will give you a 6144 by 4101 pixel count.
If you do a good conversion of a good shot, it will print better on
13 x19 than anything you can get from film. I've done numerous
comparisons. I know that to be a fact.
