I am not sure the British Library has more and access is harder than
at Cambridge.
On quality I did images of this quality
http://www.john-leech-archive.org.uk/sample.htm from a book with a
good digital camera. Photocopies are generally not allow on bound
books. A camera with a good lens is better in my view
The UL has an (excellent) imaging service -- they photocopied me
several hundred pages of my set texts last year. They do a scanning
service, but they appear to claim copyright on the scans.
See

I don't know if this claim of copyright is valid...
