Perry Paolantonio Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) Before they made film scanners, they made recorders to make still images from a computer on film (slides I think). This went on one of those devices. Edited June 7, 2022 by Perry Paolantonio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This went on one of those devices. In a former life (late 80s) at the Ministry of Defence we had a CRT film recorder using a mid-range Nikon SLR (probably FM10) and RGB exposures through a filter wheel. It was the only way to get report-quality stills other than small ones from a diffusion transfer printer at great cost. Something like the Polaroid Palette, but knowing the MoD, the money-no-object model. We used colour neg so the images could be printed to A4 sheets for reports. It was stand-alone, no computer. Now it's just Ctrl Prt Scr. Ah nostalgia for lost skills. Without the CRT and ancillaries, that item is probably a brick, unfortunately, except for the very good enlarging lens.
