    You can do all that stuff with a high-end (I mean really high-end) digital camera. I've seen landscapes printed 1meter high and 5meters long (you walk into a panorama), where the detail was perfect from inches away....just depends how fast you want to go, how much you want to pay.

    The guy who did this was showing a demo of film vs digital, of a scene of San Francisco...he progressively zoomed in on the 2 shots, and one of the shots started to break up (that was the film), kept zooming another 3-4 times on the digital...

    Also showed trees against bright sky, with digital showing way more dynamic range than film..

    now if I can just find his name...
