RPP is the only way to go if you are keen on delicate tone separation.
On strong subjects, anything does the trick - but for minimal tone differences nothing seem to beat RPPs wide tonal range.
Here's another example done with an M9 and an old Summarit (imagine skin tones):
beautiful nature morte, but small size does not make a justice - I'd post a 100% crop of the area w/ good tonal transitions (in shadows).

I never crop a single frame shot and do web vesions at 850px wide. For RPP at high definition though, try this: A six-frame stitch with the Macro Elmar 90mm on M9. Reason: A bigger piece of 'film' to print 40x50cm.
