Oh gurus of the network, I have noted that camcorders contain
little teeny CRTs in their viewfinders.  These CRTs may be of
use in a virtual reality display device I am developing.

Does anyone know of where I can get information on the the
interfaces to the viewfinder modules?  Many camcorders seem to mount 
the viewfinder CRT seperately in a module connected with a
short cable; what are the pin-outs?  No doubt brand specific.

Are the viewfinder modules available separately as replacement parts?

Etc. Etc.  Many questions.

Will summarize e-mail responses.
