Many years ago when a EGA monitors were new, we had a Professional photographer take product shots of our DOS base software. He set up the PC in a room where he could turn off the lights, He took 3 second exposures of the screen then fired a strobe to get the computer case. I have found the long exposures give good results. You need a tripod. Simple point and shoot digital cameras don't allow for an external strobe. I have used two methods to get around this. Turn down the lights (turn off the flash) and take a picture of the screen. Use a normal or dim brightness setting on the montior. Turn up the lights (or tun on the flash) and take a second picture of the complete system. Use a photo editing package to merge the two images. http://www.swtpc.com/mholley/CT_1024/CT1024_Index.htm I have also adjusted the lighting to low level and taken a single shot. http://home.comcast.net/~swtpc6800/CT_1024_New/CT1024_ebay3.jpg I am currently selling this SWTPC CT-1024 TV Typewriter on eBay.
