Much less time. Ignoring the time spent getting the scanner and
computer talking to each other and the time spent scanning, the
scanned slide generally requires much more dust removal and color
tweaking than the DMR files.

Certainly at high ISO the DMR images have much less 'noise', as defined
by grain in the film pictures and digital artifacts in the DMR
pictures. I haven't had much opportunity to conduct real-world
comparisons at ISO 100. Weather has been most un-cooperative.
