Definitely Andrew - on a bad day, when I really pushed my 1D MkIIN at
ISO3200 + some underexposure, it looks about the same. Still, the
nature of the grain (completely random, no banding or other imposed
structure) plus the lack of uneven-sized colour blotching does make
the film grain personally a bit more appealing to me. But it's really
at least 2-3 stops behind typical (i.e. Four Thirds) DSLR technology.
Of course, resolution is also much lower, I would estimate the ISO 800
film to be no better than a 4MP DSLR.
