    I have seen a website that claims Kodak Ektar 100 film has a resolution on the order of 8000 pixels per inch. Assuming his solution has a similar grain structure, his 4-in x 5-in plate has a rating of approximately 32000x40000 or 1280 megapixels.

    That's probably black and white film. And even though the detail would technically be there, the grain prohibits extreme enlarging too much. So probably closer to 200mp. An 80 megapixel camera file is super clean and enlarges very well. Stitch 2 or more 80mp files together and your into 5x7+ film range.

    Also, you would need to use a lens that resolves the maximum lp/mm of the film.
