Tina.. as a person that has seen probably thousands of rolls of film through
a loupe ( In the OLD DAYS), you know a sharp from a not-sharp shot.

Are you saying that film through a loupe is not as sharp as digital capture
( even an M8, M9 or DMR) on a screen?  

Or are you comparing scanned film to digital capture?

I do have to apply capture sharpening to every digital file - except the M8
and M9 and DMR.  Those don't have the AA filter and don't need capture
sharpening.  I'm scanning film and am amazed at how much sharper digital
files are than film.
