If you're primarily interested in shooting high-contrast test charts with ortho B/W film, these results are interesting. Otherwise, not so much.

My conclusion is that there is nothing in the article that most of us could not have told him before he ran his tests.

My conclusion is that the two technologies can, and will, peacefully co-exist. For the hurry-up world we are too often trapped within, digital makes sense. But when we can escape from it, there's still a genuine pleasure to be had in recording images on the best film emulsions there have ever been . . . excepting of course the absence of Kodachrome
