most of my photographer friends can't which is better between my *istD and my Provia 100F shots at up to 11x14. usually, they can tell which is film and which is digital, but looked at purely from an image quality point of view, digital has many more advantages than disadvantages for my work. if i know i am going to be making prints larger than 11x14, shooting Velvia has an advantage provided that what i am shooting is within it's exposure latitude.
