According to the sensor specification, the 10D has more pixels per MM that
the 1Ds.
That being the case I would expect to see the 10D offering more subject
detail for identical image scaling.
Is that the case and how noticeable is it on a print.
Almost any point-and-shoot digital compact will also have many more pixels per millimeter than the 1Ds. A typical point and shoot sensor is only about 7mm by 5mm, but has 4 or 5 megapixels crammed onto it. The large sensor in the 1Ds (and other DSLRs enables large (hence low-noise pixels) contributing very significantly to the high picture quality.
The number of pixels per millimeter is not a good indication of image quality.
