Hi All!

Sorry if this is off topic, but I am curious about something I saw back in
1998 on the Internet.
It was a digital cartridge designed to fit in the film cassette cavity of a
standard SLR camera, with a CCD 'tongue' that was supposed to fit under the
pressure plate to convert any SLR to a digital camera.

The thing was back then in its prototype phase, but was described as set for
production. I cannot remember anything about its intended resolution or
memory capacity.

I admit I was sceptical at the time, and it seems as if the product never
hit the market.
Anyone remember this? What became of it?

Regards, Mats.E
