Hi Kevin,
I'm working on an areaDetector driver for EDT digital camlink framegrabbers
which is nearly ready for community use.

EDT doesn't make an analog framegrabber though, so I don't know how
much help it would be.    If you decide to write your own AD driver for your
framegrabbers I could make the code available to you for comparison purposes.

Cheers,
- Bruce

Hi Kevin,

I don't know of any areaDetector support for analog frame grabbers.  Is there a hard requirement for analog cameras?  There are quite inexpensive GigE cameras now available with areaDetector support.  For example, the Point Grey Blackfly cameras are under $500 for 2048x1536 at 35 frames/s, and under $300 for 1280x960 at 52 frames/s.

Hi Folks,
We are setting up Area Detector for an electron gun test stand on a linux box. We intend to use both analog and digital cameras.

Please comment on which frame grabber we should purchase.

Thanks in advance,
Kevin
