[comp.sys.sun] Matrix Film Recorders for SparcStation

jjr@emx.utexas.edu (06/27/90)

Does anybody use a (Agfa) Matrix video film recorder with a high
resolution monitor?  I'm trying to select a video film recorder to use
with a SparcStation 1 with a 19" color Trinitron monitor (1152 by 900
pixels, 66 Hz, noninterlaced).  I mostly need to be able to make slides of
images about 512 by 512.  However, the Matrix representative said that the
low-resolution model (Model 6115, 15 kHz, $5495 + $1495 for 35mm camera)
won't work with the fast scan rate of the Trinitron monitor.  He said I
must use their high- resolution model (Model 6264, 64 kHz, $10795 + $1495
for 35mm camera).  Is this true?  Does anybody use a Matrix video film
recorder with a high-resolution monitor?  Is the fancy model the only
choice?  Does the Polaroid FreezeFrame video film recorder work with the
SparcStation's 19" monitor?  Any help would be much appreciated.
