>PHYSHARE subscribers, > >Last March Lowell Herr began a discussion on digital cameras. Thought I >would add a note to Mac users who have been considering purchasing >Apple's QuickTake 100. We examined the QT 100 through our Apple rep >for a short period last fall and were quite impressed with the quality >involving medium distance-range subjects. Mac users might be interested in >noting that Apple is now shipping an improved model - Apple >QuickTake 150. I had not received any information that a new camera >would be available until I checked with our Apple representative for >latest computer prices. He told us that the 150 has increased >memory to hold more images, improved lens quality and a slightly lower price. >According to our Apple rep,the lens(es?) are interchangeable or can be adapted >for close-up work, and third party suppliers already have accessories >available for the camera. Apple includes info on the vendors with the >camera. We ordered one this week and will drop a quick review to PHYSHARE as >soon as it arrives. > >-Phil Kline, > Chemistry Physics Teacher > Mohawk HS > Sycamore, OH > pkline@nike.heidelberg.edu We skipped the whole quick take caper by using our power pc 6100/60 AV as a video snapshot device: using "video monitor" you can just cut and paste snapshots from live off air video, tapes or live camera stuff. We have a VHS camcorder piped into the machine for live stuff. Cheap, clean, and easy to work. imho aloha Bill ------------------------ Bill Wiecking Honolulu Hawaii Bill@ahi.pbrc.hawaii.edu Pacific Biomedical Research Center Bekesy Lab of Neurobiology ========================
