I try a reala with my eos3+contax 28-85 and shot the same on 400d+tamron 17-50AF.
not very scientific test but I was happy to see that dynamic range of film is ok vs digital
I give the film for printing on cd, each file is jpg 6mb sharpened and fixed by lab
The 400d is with dpp landscape sharp:3
Here is a sample at 50% of lab 6mb

it cost me 4e for reala & 7e for develop and cd
quite expansive but I have to send my 400d for service next month and slowly prepare for film

Till this time this scan was the best what I seen. I not shoot on film, because I have no good scanning solution.

Not bad at all for a 35mm film!
Too bad the film is slightly overexposed. If it was half stop darker, it would have been even better.
At this resolution, of course - one should make the comparison at the original 400D resolution - then I think digital would show superiority in detail.

What impress me is more the texture of film than definition

Yes, because of greater microcontrast in the film, which "brings out" the textures, they seem more alive.

The AA of digital camera acts in the opposite direction, it depresses the microcontrast, so sharpening is necessary.

Digital cameras depressing microcontrast is also the reason why Contax and Leica lenses (rich in microcontrast) do so well with digital. And require less sharpening than Canon EF lenses.
