As someone who participated in a test of the Kontron high-resolution digital camera, may I recommend it as a solution in the case of delicate or difficult (e.g., outsized) materials? Its maximum resolution is just over 3000 x 2000, 24-bit color, and the results are spectacular. You won't want to buy it for this project (about $25,000), but you may be able to find someone in your vicinity who has one. It's distributed by Roche (the medical-pharmaceutical folks) in this country; the southernmost installation I know of is at the University of Virginia.If you'd like more information, I can probably put you in touch with someone who knows more.
