ABSTRACT:
A computer controlled microfilm camera system and method for microfilming data onto pre-cut individual microfiche film sheets in one of a plurality of formats selected by a system user. The camera system includes a reusable cartridge which permits the single microfiche film sheet to be substantially withdrawn and exposed, and then reinserted into the cartridge for processing in a daylight loading processor. The cartridge is supported on a movable carriage assembly which is connected to a first drive system and stepping motor so as to provide for translation of the film sheet in a column direction. The carriage assembly supports a second drive system and stepping motor which is connected so as to provide for translation of the film sheet in a row direction. A pre-programmed microprocessor controls the incremental stepping of the film sheet in directions determined in response to format selection data input to the microprocessor by a system user, identifying one of a plurality of format tables stored in the microprocessor. The microprocessor additionally controls the order of movement of the film sheet in order to expose the film in either a row mode or a column mode as specified by the user.
