But the "look" is similar. I forgot to post that in either of these cases the film grain is NOT an issue. Its more the tonal range captured and the look of the extreme highlights. Film captures more but the curves are not straight, there is a knee on the hightlights. Whereas digital can't capture as much range but there isnt a knee, its straight right up to the point of clipping... jco
