Since I was quoted on the bottom of this (I've edited it out), I want to make it quite clear that on many occasions I have stated that I find the number one problem with digital is the poor archival nature of storage, so I am in total agreement with Karl. The problem of change of format, no easy

Rafe, My query was specific to the issue of print permanence. Indeed, there are many valid reasons to discuss film scanning at all. And in many applications, digital probably wins hands down. As I implied in my first query, permanence is paramount (all other things being equal) to me. And so
