We use ComputerEyes/RT with our Performa 475.  (from Digital Vision).
It's an external SCSI
framegrabber, which will work with any Mac that has a SCSI port (almost
all of them).  It comes with some QuickTime utilities for capturing 
images.  I'm not sure whether NIH Image will do motion tracking
or not.  You might try comp.sys.mac.scitech.
