Mind you, he harps on about noise.  I don't therefore understand why he
didn't use a scanner with ICE?  The digital cameras have automatic noise
reduction in their software don't they, so why put the scans at a
disadvantage?  Also, he says that 4000dpi is his perceived maximum of
information from film, yet he scans at 3200?

I don't doubt that the 1Ds 'could' match 35mm, but I have a problem
comparing it to 645.

The other issue in my mind is lattitude.  I have yet to see a digicam
with the wide exposure lattitude of negative film.  Possibly 'narrow'
slides, although I think provia is reasonably 'wide', so if the D1s can
match that it aint bad.
