in general, i agree with simms's comments.

we do animation via a recorder (1" SONY BVH2500) that can record a frame at a time.
(it is expensive..... ~$80K). there is a well defined
if inconvenient (38.4KB RS422) remote control interface.
regrettably, our 4D240 cannot generate 38.4KB (i mean kilobaud here) reliably.
this deck gives fabulous video; its what the networks use.
