I did something similar, and came to the same conclusion. Since I like to project my work "wall-size", it's either slides+slide-projector or digital+digital-projector. Slides wins hands-down for that, at least if I am to stay within a reasonable budget of projectors. Notice, that the test is specifically for the whole production chain towards one specific "output media". Comparing "best possible prints" is not useful if the desired output media is projection :) If the output media is "prints" then comparing projected images makes no sense either. Digital has other merits, to be sure, which I wouldn't be without. --thomas
