I think you are wildly optimistic about film grain. Fast film is as bad

only Kodachrome sends you up to the 20MP arena.


I think some are confused..
20 MP will resolve the grain in the film so that you can print it and
still have the grain.
It doesn't mean the film has as much detail as a digital image taken
with a 20MP sensor.
