Here they are both sharpened. The digital shot is much clearer. No noise, and very crisp. The difference will be obvious when printing.
The real kicker is that you can get the s1r used for under 1500. A couple manual focus primes from yesteryear and adapter can be had for 500. Complete kit for 2k. A 4x5 kit would be a bit cheaper, probably around 1-1.5k for similar lenses, tripod, changing bag, etc. While the digital kit is more expensive, factoring film processing makes the 4x5 kit more expensive in the long run, don't forget that 4x5 basically impossible to use in many of the situations that the s1r can be used. Its just way more versatile.
