Based on Print sizes and Megapixels, I made a little test with my film 
scanner. I scanned an image that had a huge amount of detail. First at 5400 
dpi and then 2700 dpi. The 2700 was downsized to match a 6mp image and then 
upsized to match the original. You can see the results here:

I am still torn between a digital scanner or a Miccrotek 120tf and start 
using my 67 and Horseman again. With digital, I can take heaps of pictures 
and with film, I feel that I have some satisfaction. I keep negatives but 
hardly any images off of the Oly (which I think is excellent).

Cheers,

Bob Rapp
