i have now finished the book merge program and updated this thing you are free to distribute it as freeware as i know there is no other programs to do this function this should now be able to handle a full size DLSR i just have no way to test it as i do not have a DLSR every thing you will nead to build this is nuts and bolts and the glass is picture frame glass just about all frames are the same thickness so you can chose the size that you want the size i chose is main stay 11x14 found at Walmart i checked all the frames there and all where the same except for the largest frames those had thicker glass in them was i surprised that all the cameras at Walmart was DV format of 1080x720 video and at least 10mp or higher for images so a new camera would most certainly work i recommend the 4k cameras like the gopro for scanning these are super hdv at 3600x? some cameras are also at these resolutions like the dslr cameras these are realy supper expansive and a few small cameras i am using my coolpix L20 it has this resolution and are being sold on ebay for around $20 this is the webcam i have chosen this works for small reading books but larger teck books it works but is marginal http://www.ebay.com/itm/2MP-Webcam-1080P-GUCEE-HD92-Full-HD-Web-Camera-110-Degree-Wide-Angle-Crystal-Cl/112479882418?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
