That's a quite-enjoyable article. It quickly reminded me of FLAAR,
<www.flaar.org>, which got its start making very-high-quality digital
photos (including prints) in Latin American museums. FLAAR does not, and
really can not advise on consumer/prosumer equipment, though. Google on
FLAAR for more links.
