conditions. Shutter life, image quality, power consumption, and of course reliability are major concerns. We have done this research
for you, and believe we have found the optimum camera for the application.
As in many endeavors, “details count!”. For instance: some customers have asked to use their own Nikon SLR camera. While the
cameras would certainly be perfectly suited to capturing images, there are some difficulties accommodating most Nikon SLRs in
