They both have good coverage of the subject, but the pixilation makes it look worse than it actually is. After looking though the images a few times, I started getting a better view of them. They both have excellent coverage, it is just the quality of the media, and that is where the Kodak film fails to deliver. Yes in that respect it does majorly hurt the image. I like the monochrome better too. A lot more effective image. More clear, and smooth contours, looks a lot more professional, as an image you would expect from Leica.
