Don't expect to get D800 sharpness out of film. Film just isn't really "sharp" like digital is, regardless of the format. 4x5 might have about the resolving power of a D800, but it still has grain, whereas a D800 doesn't. :/
Also, real B&W film doesn't scan super awesome and usually looks uber flat. Color filters help a little bit, but if your main intent is scanning, look into shooting XP2 or BW400CN. Much better films for scanning.
4x5 has at least twice the resolving power as a d800.
