Digital is nowhere near film in the large format arena. I'm getting close to 200 megapixels scanning 4X5 film. Once they come up with affordable sensors approaching this number, maybe THEN film will be dead.

In latest issue of French "Chasseur d'images" there was comparison of high speed film (Superia 400 and 1600) with two DSLRs (Nikon D100 and Canon 300D). And while at iso400 DSLRs performed better - almost no grain (noise) was visible, then at iso1600 Superia was much better, having significantly smaller grain than noise in both cameras. As we can see, no technology is perfect and so film has still some serious advantages over digital :-) -- Best Regards Sylwek
