                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales for the second quarter ended June 30, 1999 were $2,744,000, a decrease of
13.0% from the same quarter in the prior year. Sales for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 were $4,574,000, a decrease of 10.3% over the same period in the
prior year. Lighting sales increased $23,000 for the second quarter and $189,000
for the year to date period, as compared to the same periods in the prior year.
An increase in orders from large customers accounted for the sales increases in
the lighting product line. The camera product line accounts for a decrease in
sales of $99,000 for the second quarter and $281,000 for the year to date
period, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decline in camera
product line sales is primarily attributable to decreased ZIII model camera
sales. Sales of the third product line, printers, decreased by $332,000 for the
second quarter and $433,000 for the year to date period, as compared to the same
periods in the prior year. The sales trend for the printer line continues to
decline because the photographic printer market continues to experience
consolidation and excess capacity.

The Company has entered into an agreement with a major existing customer for the
sale of dual ported lens cameras. The dual ported lens camera simultaneously
captures both a film and digital image. The Company is presently developing the
camera to specifications in the agreement. It is anticipated that shipments will
commence in December of 1999 and extend up to 18 months thereafter, totaling
$6.3 million.

Under an agreement with Eastman Kodak Company, the Company will manufacture,
sell and service the new Kodak Professional Dual Capture Imaging System. The
system was developed by Kodak Professional, incorporating a beam splitter, video
camera and personal computer components. It generates a digital image file
simultaneous with the capture of a film image using the customer's traditional
film camera. The digital image file is used for immediate point-of-sale
presentation to the customer and printing of record images with an order
summary. Shipments of these systems are expected to commence in the third
quarter of 1999. The Dual Capture Imaging System is currently in field testing.

The gross profit margin for the second quarter of 1999 increased to 31.4% from
26.0% in the second quarter of 1998. The gross profit margin for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 increased to 29.3% from 18.8% in the prior year period.
Gross margin increased in the lighting and camera product lines. The lighting
line, which was moved from California to Minnesota is now fully integrated. The
improvement in the camera line gross margin reflects improved operating
efficiencies. Because of the significant volume decline in the printer line, its


                                        7
<PAGE>


gross margin is decreasing. Gross margin varies depending upon the product mix
of sales. Management expects that the margins for the year 1999 will be
approximately 26%.

Marketing and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of sales to
15.5% for the second quarter of 1999 from 14.1% for the second quarter of 1998
and increased to 20.2% for the first six months of 1999 from 19.2% for the same
period in 1998. Marketing and administrative expenses decreased $20,000 for the
second quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter of 1998 and decreased
$52,000 for the first six months of 1999 compared to the same period in 1998.
Research, development and engineering expense decreased by $54,000 for the
second quarter of 1999 compared to the second quarter of 1998 and decreased by
$108,000 for the first six months of 1999 compared to the same period of 1997.
The decreases reflect staff reductions as a result of consolidation of
operations in Minnesota.

As a result of no outstanding debt, there is no interest expense in 1999
compared to $10,000 in the second quarter of 1999 and compared to first six
months of 1998.


LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash decreased by $320,000 to $411,000 since December 31, 1998. Operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 resulted in $298,000 of negative cash flow.

At June 30, 1999 there is no borrowing under the line of credit. The Company can
borrow up to $1,000,000 under its line of credit. The line is unsecured, at the
prime rate of interest and renewed annually in May.

The Company believes that its cash flow from future operations and available
borrowing capacity will be sufficient to finance operations and capital
requirements.


FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Statements included or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q which are not historical in nature are identified as "forward looking
statements" for the purposes of the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. The Company cautions readers that forward looking
statements, including without limitation, those relating to the Company's future
business prospects, revenues, working capital, liquidity, capital needs,
interest costs, and income, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the
forward looking statements. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not
limited to, economic conditions, product demand and industry capacity,
competitive products and pricing, manufacturing efficiencies, new product
development and market acceptance, the regulatory and trade environment, and
other

risks indicated in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

YEAR 2000 DISCLOSURE

The Company has nearly completed its evaluation and necessary modifications or
replacement of its internal business computer systems and software so that they
will function properly in the year 2000 and beyond. The Company's business
software and systems will be made year 2000 compliant in the normal course
system upgrades planned in 1999. The Company's integrated manufacturing and
accounting software and the associated hardware and operating system software
have been upgraded to achieve year 2000 compliance. The Company's networked
computers, network server and associated business and technical software are in
the process of being upgraded. The Company expects the year 2000 remedial work
will be completed by August 31, 1999.

Generally, the Company's products do not utilize date dependent functions.
Testing is being performed on those products which do incorporate date
functions. The Company is in the process of contacting and providing services to
customers to assist them in achieving year 2000 compliance with possibly
affected equipment.

Progress in the year 2000 effort is being monitored by senior management. At
this stage, the Company believes that it can address the year 2000 issues under
its control to prevent any material impact on its operations, and that the costs
associated with the year 2000 efforts will not materially impact financial
results. The Company can not guarantee that the Company's vendors and customers
can achieve timely year 2000 compliance, which could have an adverse impact on
the Company. Critical vendors of supplies and services are being contacted to
assess their state of compliance and the potential impacts, if any, on the
Company's operations. The Company will implement contingency plans where
necessary so that the Company's operations will not be materially affected by
the year 2000.
