There is going to be some loss of image quality however the image is transferred from the neg (or chrome) to the print, whether analog or digital. Some workflows introduce more problems than others but regardless of the particulars of the workflow the best results come from doing your best work at each step of the way ... and that includes the initial exposure with Leica (on-topic) glass. In 4000dpi scans I see clear differences between well-supported and hand-held photos, between Leica-made and Other Brand chromes, and between Leica APO and Leica non-APO pictures. Good quality work requires good craftmanship at each step of the way, regardless of the workflow.
