Tomek,
thanks for sharing these results. I fully agree with your comments about the
D100 resolution (or lack thereof), what surprises me slightly is your choice
of shooting slides rather than negatives for your "important" work. Slides
may be less grainy (although comparison here is not truly fair as you shot a
200ASA negative and a 100ASA slide), but negatives are *way* easier to scan
(at least for the 4000ED and scanners in the same league). No matter how
hard I tried, couldn't get the Provia crop to look as good as the Superia
crop.
YMMV, especially if you have access to drum scanners.
Regards,
Alessandro
