What about a digital file printed on photo sensitive paper (traditional print)?

Scanned images ARE digital images.

Same as digital camera images.

But if you put up a silver print from a black and white negative next to an inkjet print of a digital file, then, yes I think I will be able to tell the difference.

So you think you can tell the difference between film and digital? Can you really see the difference? Many of my pix are scanned from negs or slides. Some are taken with a digital camera. Can you tell which are which?

Which ones "look" better to your eyes?
