You might want to look into the Kodak 14n SLR.
Its a 14 megapixel camera used by studio professionals. Kodak
currently have a $1000 rebate knocking off a quarter to a third of the price
depending where and what configuration you buy. The camera uses a full
size CMOS sensor which will give you 1:1 ratio on all Nikon lenses (new and
old). More information can be found at their website.

A lot of companies should be unveiling new cameras at the Photo Expo coming
up this month. The following is a link to a great digital camera review
site. The link goes to the Photo Expo review on that site:

Hello everyone,
Our museum is considering the purchase of a digital
SLR camera for use in a variety of image-taking for our collections
management. We have been using an older, lesser quality digital camera,
which is nearing the end of its life. We will be using the SLR for all
manner of artifact documentation, condition reporting, treatment pictures, as
well as occasional images for publication. We also require high quality
shots of interiors, i.e. large, fully furnished historic rooms. we are
looking at the SLR for its flexibility, including the different lenses available
(wide angle, macro). We will be capturing directly to a laptop. We
have, or will have the needed lighting and flash equipment. Has anyone
else tried these digital SLR cameras for this purpose? We are looking at
the Nikon D100, among others. Many thanks,
Michael Oates
