- Hi,
-
- This is a wierd one, but I said I'd post and ask...
-
- Are there consumer videocameras (8mm, preferably) that can take a video
- signal from an external source and overlay it onto the image that the camera
- itself is taping? As I understand it, this would be one of those
- lightweight all-in-one handycam units (camera and tape recording
- mechanism in single housing, like a Sony Sportcam) with a "video in" that
- wouldn't switch out the camera element.
-
- Conceptually, the syncing problems (not to mention gain, color balance, etc.)
- would be, ah, interesting, but hey, who knows, MicroMiniaturization Is
- Wonderful Stuff...
-
- Anyway, thanks in advance. E-mail replies appreciated.

- Lee
