INTRODUCTION
The first section of this chapter is devoted to a brief description of
how the KODAK EKTAPRO EM Motion Analyzer moves images in
and out of memory. We feel this will assist you to decide which
record mode is best suited to a particular application.
The EKTAPRO EM Processor stores its images in random access
memory (RAM) rather than on film or magnetic tape. The major
advantage of storing pictures in RAM is speed. There are no
moving mechanical parts involved in the recording process.
A mechanical part takes time to stabilize at a particular speed.
Eliminating the mechanical tape or film transport eliminates the
major delay between pressing the record key and when record-
ing actually begins. How then, does the Processor manage the
picture storage process?
