Well Canon uses a CMOS sensor on the 10D and 1DS but the 1D (in the middle) uses a CCD sensor. I have heard that the CCD can atrack more elctrostatic dust. It will be interesting to see when the new/revised 1D comes out (within the next few months) if they stay with the CCD or swicth to a CMOS.

I have also heard and talked with people who have had seen quality differences with the same lens between a film camera and a digital camera.

And while skin tones and other things can be adjusted in Photoshop, you can't improve the clarity-qualities...
