Digital vs gelatin silver prints from film	by nedludd	2006-12-13 14:01:53
I'd guess it's the resolution	by Arachnid	2006-12-13 14:06:20
Since grain is, by definition, the very finest detail representable on film, unless your scans were extremely high resolution, it's not going to show up. Typical color film has an equivalent resolution of something like 30 megapixels. It sounds like your film has less than that, for the grain to be that noticeable, but it'd still be high. And even if they were very high resolution, as you pointed out, jpeg compression would do a lot to eliminate it.
