Yes, the lack of grain in digital emulates what you get in large format film, and i like that, but there is no real detail like what you get in large format film in 6 megapixels. Im used to more like 100 megapixel from 4X5 film and 8X10 is more like 400 megapixels of course...Megalpixels in DSLR still have a L O N G way to go to match large format, hell they are barely reaching 35mm at his point in terms of sharpness.....
