Every now and then I've seen postings about how to take photographs of images
on the console; however, I never had any need to do such photography so I 
never saved the postings.  Now I have a need.  We recently bought a molecular
modeling package and I would like to take publication-quality photographs of
the molecular models.  The images are generated by the MIDAS software and 
displayed on a Personal IRIS 4D/25.  Can someone give me advice about the
best focal length lens, the type of film, exposure, etc.

Thanks
                                               Howie
