ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for correlating development instructions with individual photographic exposures as disclosed. Also disclosed is an integrated method of viewing, editing, printing and cutting individual photographic exposures based on previously stored data. The apparatus and method includes a device for the manual entry of information regarding the ultimate development and exposure of a photographic image, a memory device for storing the information, a shutter operating circuit for operating a camera shutter during the information storage phase. Thereafter, the information stored during the photographic phase may be transferred to the commercial photographic studio where the data can be used for a variety of processes, including commercial printing, editing, sorting, accounting, reporting, correlating and physical storage. The stored information produced at the time the photographic exposure is made is used to control all of the foregoing steps in a variety of combinations.
