Digital BW, The Print

I can understand how you feel. Am myself in the process of testing what 
my future position will be. Since you seem to be a few steps further in 
your research, may I suggest a possible next step, which I will 
eventually try too: how about digital negatives contact printed on good 
old baryte paper? I know that several photographers have done that and 
are quite pleased with the results. For making the negatives, look at 
the classic Dan Burkholder or the newer Mark Nelson workflows.
