Usually.

Yes, same resolution. But in the case of JPEG stills on the
computer, you have a great deal more power and sophistication
in doing the scaling, conversions, etc. than in a cheap scan
converter hardware box. Of course if you are using high-end
scaling and conversion hardware (like the Folsom equipment
Mr. Jandro has mentioned), you are likely to get equivalent or
even better results.
