        I know of two digitizers which should be available RSN.  The specs for
the one I saw in action were:

                Full color from color video camera captured in 1/30th sec.

                Black and white capture in 1/60th sec.

        Actually, I believe the capture times were much faster than this (from
observation of captured images of people who were not entirely still) but
these are what the manufacturer was claiming.

        Quality?  You could see freckles on the subject's face and the
individual hairs of his mustache!  It was impressive.

        Drawbacks:  data transfer over the parallel port.  This can take a
while for images with lots of bitplanes.


                                                             Wade.
