There's a box called the "Polaroid Pallette" that will allow recording
computer images on ordinary photographic film. If you did up any info
on me, I'm sure that there's a number of people on the net who'd be
interested. Unfortunately, the only info I have on it is advertising
slicks, which are in New Orleans... I seem to recall that its input is
an ordinary NTSC signal, which implies that a RGB-to-NTSC converter
would be all that's required for snapshotting. As for software... just
about any IFF viwer would do. There's any number of those floating
about in the public domain.

As an aside, our local cable station has four Amigas (3 500s, 1 1000)
with genlocks, used for both video production and the "viewing
directory" service....
