#ZapShot Images on Amiga
5 messages in this thread
Has anyone used the Canon ZapShot in conjunction with an Amiga. I saw
ZapShot images displayed on an Amiga; I just don't know what hardware and
software was used. I also want to be able to use Zapshot images in a
database application.
Any info or advice would be much appreciated.

Thre zapshot puts out a hi-res video signal which can be grabbed with any
video frame grabber. the only problem is that most NTSC composite frame
grabbers go for a fast low-res image from moving video, rather than a slow
scan of a beautiful hi-res video still like the Xapshot gives.. you really
need digi-view or progressive's framegrabber 256, with a color splitter
accessory to give seperate R,G, and B mono video signals. This way you can
get nearly the full digital quality image which the xapshot has taken…
Do you know how much the XapShot goes for, street? Hooking it up to DCTV
would probably be easy and cheap.

I saw a Xapshot for sale at a store for around $550.00
That's a LOT more money than I thought. If it were something like $200 I
might've gone for it. $550 is far more than my budget.
