I don't think you can do valid testing, as it's an apples to oranges comparison. And if you digitize the 6x7 negs, the quality of the scan is the limiting factor. I was scanning my 6x7 negs on an Epson 3200 flatbed at 3200 dpi. The images are nice, but not as good as my K5 delivers. With a high end scanner, I would think you can top the digital images, but not with a flatbed.
