There comes a point in resolution when scanning film that all

picture quality.
There's a contradiction in that last sentence.
How so? Please explain.
I'm interested in seeing the photograph, not the grain.

Last time I checked, the photograph is built by small bits of grain.
No photograph without grain. Better grain quality equals better
photograph quality.
