Assuming a printer that is capable of at least the resolution of the
camera, I wonder what the limitation of the human eye is when viewing a
8x10 print. Can the eye resolve the difference between high resolution
digital and film? I know the eye is an incredible detector in terms of
identifying colors, chromaticity and hues, but I don't know it's
capability in terms of overall resolution.

Found the answer to my question:

Forgot. Simply put, (which it isn't) the eye/brain combination yields the
equivalent of a 576 megapixel camera, according to Clark.

Man, that's a pretty hi res device. Good to know. And in my case, all
that resolution comes into focus at about 2 feet and moving further.
