I can report having just the opposite experience. I missed finding an
ancestor on looking at the microfilm because the entry was too faint and
somewhat smudged, only to find it in readable form on Ancestry.com. I don't
know how they did it, but even going back to the microfilm, I still found it
unreadable.
