<p>Method and circuit for converting a conventional camera into an electro-optical camera. The camera, in accordance with the method and circuit of the present invention, can retain all of its original structural components, for example, lens, viewfinder, exposure control and focus mechanism, and be readily converted to provide an electro-optical capability, as an advantageous alternative to a traditional film-based capability. To this end, the invention features techniques for detecting a camera's function, status and timing, in order to synchronize and initiate the required electro-optical functions.</p> |
