	A short but detailed discussion of tricks for photographing video
monitors can be found in the book:

	Video Microscopy
	by Shinya Inoue
	Plenum Press, NY 
	1986

	(see pp. 423-432)

	This work also cites an Eastman Kodak booklet (which I've not
seen), entitled "Photographing Television Images"

	I've found it helpful to use a zoom telephoto lens (80 - 200 mm),
thus setting the camera as far away from the monitor as possible, reducing
the effects of screen curvature.
