My museum has an extensive collection of Civil War CDVs, tintypes, etc.  We often get requests from publications or other museums for scans of the items for different projects.  We were curious if there was a standard for this type of work and whether there will be extensive damage to the artifact.  Fortunately, it's not repeataive or extensive exposure to light.  Is there particular equipment that's better than others?  Opinions?

Thanks
Ginger
