Answer is yes, not too much, but definetly visible. I do have a S2. You can get the most out it, if you use RAW and the Fuji EX Software. Then the results are really stunning.

Fuji S-2 vs Canon 10D

First I apologize for adding to the seemingly endless realm of chat about both these cameras.

My question: Do the Fuji's larger interpolated files allow you to make larger prints, better than with the Canon 10D?

Thanks

I own both a D60 and an S2.  (Actually the S2 is my wife's, who has a separate photo business but...)  I agree with the first poster that the S2 interpolation is slightly better, but only very marginally.  I've commented quite a bit on D60 vs. S2 on the Rob Galbraith forums, my overall conclusion:  buy the one that makes you happy.  

I think the D60 shoots faster, handles better, and produces the best image quality when the dynamic range is well under control.

I find it easier to get good skintone from the S2, and it seems to have a better dynamic range than the D60, although I haven't tested this rigorously.

How much interpolation you need depends on the medium; I've seen a 40x60 of a bride printed on photo paper with a hybrid printer that was shot with an S1 that looked as good as anything medium format ever did.  

Reproduction on press requires more pixels, but I've sent D60 files which I upsampled about 30% (in Photoshop, 5% at a time) look perfect on press at full page size.
