Digital pic with your regular 35mm camera

[Eazy]

Found this old page .... "digital film cassette" for regular 35mm cameras.... only US$ 1000 per cassette - 1998 price ....

EFS-1 looks like a regular film cassette, with a rigid tongue of 'film' sticking out, which fits into the camera's film cavity. Mounted on the rigid tongue is a 1.3 megapixel (1280 x 1024) CMOS sensor which sits in the film plane. Inside the cassette is 40MB of storage and a standard camera battery.

Hehe yeah remember this. Was an interesting concept - however the resolution is much too low, and so is the mem space!

Moreover the company never really released the product (i.e. vaporware). As of now the company has renamed itself to Silicon Film or something, and still no product as yet :hap5:
