3686.0. "Taking pictures of the display" by TRUCKS::CHANT (Something different) Wed Apr 18 1990 03:48

    Can anyone give me some advice on taking pictures of the Amiga screen
    display using a camera. For what its worth I've got a Pentax P50.

    I want to take , color, pictures of things like mandlebrots etc.


    Thanks
    Adrian

	I used to take pictures of the TV. Assuming you're talking about still pictures on the screen, I'd recommend about 1/15 second. Use a tripod and a darkened room (to avoid reflections off the monitor glass). You should get quite good results, however you can see the "scan lines" etc. on the final print if enlarged. -Rog PS moving pictures are a little more difficult...
