I have an amiga 2000 with a 40mb hard drive (hardframe controller)
and 3meg of memory.  I bought an 8mm camcorder last spring and now
I'm thinking about mixing amiga graphics with my video.  I realize I
need some kind of genlock device, but I'm not quite sure what's
available out there now.  Anyone have suggestions?  I'd also like to
be able to digitize video images from my camcorder, but that's not
as imporant right now.  The key here is "affordability"... I'm not
looking to spend oodles of money right now (I already did that when
I bought the camcorder), but any suggestions will be taken gladly.
Has anyone actually seen or used the "video toaster"?  

Please EMail directly to me... I rarely have the time to keep up
with this newsgroup.  If enough interest is expressed, I will post a
summary article.

Thanks in advance...
