- As far as I can say, it`s a pretty nice digitizer for the A12oo.
- Although I`d lke to use it on my big machine, it`s way to slow without the
- PCMCIA interface (of course the screen preview, not the scanning itself).
-
- It produces good, but surely no superb grabs from any Video/TV/Camera
- source and comes with an easy to use software, too. You can (as you`re
- mentioning above) even control a standard parallel-port sampler for
- synchronous-sampling with the digitizer.
- The Software also has some effect modules which can be used to play with
- the grabbed image.
-
- I`d recommend to get Photogenics, too, as it has basic control-capability
- over the digitizer and comes with powerful paintmodes (control includes
- "realtime" preview AND scanning, of course).
-
- As Ive said before, I`m quite satisfied with it for my A12oo, but I`d like
- to know if any other ZorroII grabber can grab the images with a better
- quality.
-
- BTW. It supports FBAS and Y/C signals.
- There`s a IMHO totally equal version available - sold here in Germany
- as "Graffito24" - : same software-developer, same outfit, same
- features.
