the 10D/20D can deliver a hell of a job. But the results
compared to film are quite different. The Canon digitals
record an image with much less noise than film at any
given ISO - therefore the images look much cleaner.
Detail for big enlargements is questionable and depends
on your quality standards.
otoh MF film can resolve much more detail if you use the
right scanner .
Either way you'll have to shell out a decent amount of
money to get better results... then you'll have to decide
which workflow you prefer...
completely digital
- The 20D gives you about 30% more pixels/effective
resolution over a 10D for $1,300
not much of an advantage in my book...
film/semi-digital
- a decent MF kit $600+ (and that is rock bottom)
- a dedicated film scanner (to get a real advantage of MF) $1,300
then think about processing and printing...
