Plus you're starting out with a much lower res image than film would record, and it's already recorded as discrete points of light by the CCD, not "washed" over the film.  (I know that was unscientific).

Subject: Weekend Digital Adventure

First I want to thank Shel for his great post on making photographs.  This weekend I had three days use of a Nikon Coolpix 990 and three days was all it took to cure my digital bug.  Recently I've expressed interest in digital imaging, this weekend I got my hands dirty, the results I've convinced myself that digital isn't ready for me, or maybe I'm not ready for it.  The Nikon is back with it owner and the money I may have spent on a digital camera will surely buy me some more screwmount stuff or maybe a couple of new lenses for my Contax 159mm.  I do have a question for the more experianced digital users. Is it normal to develop blockiness in digital photos after heavy cropping.  For me this was on of the most annoying aspects of the digital camera.
