Hi Steve
I'm not sure how relevant this is, but may give a different slant about the
problem. Researching digital copying of paintings for my UK degree
dissertation, I came across a scientific paper where they had separated the
surface and body reflections using polarizers, and a single chip camera with
5 band rotating filter wheel (i.e. a multiband imaging system). They
obtained an average Delta E of 1.16. The paper isn't online, but you can
either get it through an interlibrary loan (SPIE Vol. 3648, pp. 218-225), or
if you email me your address I'll mail you a copy. If you can get Japanese
translated, there is a website -
http://www.icsd6.tj.chiba-u.ac.jp/IPA/ipa.html
and they say you can download developed software from this page (presumably
also in Japanese).
Good luck.
