Analog Film versus Digital Photography

I have mixed impressions - my Pentax-F 100mm macro is still basically the same optical design as it's newest iteration, and seems as sharp as I need on the K-3 (see below). My 400mm f/5.6 FA*definitely seems softer on digital than it did on slide film - maybe there is some truth in the whole 'optimised for digital' thing as far as some lenses go. The beauty (to me) of the FA Ltds is that they make digital look more like film - which is great when that's what you want.
