An imaging module for imaging, and a reader for and a method of electro-optically reading, a target, include a support, an imaging assembly including a solid-state imager having an array of image sensors on the support for capturing return light over a field of view at a range of working distances from the target along a folded imaging path, and an illuminating assembly on the support for directing illumination light along a folded illuminating path having a length longer than the folded imaging path to uniformly illuminate the target with the illumination light. The longer length of the folded illuminating path enables the illuminating assembly to illuminate the target with more of the illumination light, and also enables the imaging assembly to capture more of the return light for increased imaging/reading performance.
