Not being a professional or a scientist or anything, I should probably 
shut up, but my own impression is that you don't get a lot more useful 
information out of film by scanning it at super-high resolutions. Yes, 
there's more there to be seen at higher magnifications, but not really 
image data. It seems that you're just getting a clearer look at the 
grain structure past a point.
