NOTE 3


         Net Income per common share is computed based on the weighted average
         number of common shares outstanding during the period when computing
         the basic earnings per share. When dilutive, stock options are included
         as equivalents using the Treasury Stock method when computing the
         diluted earnings per share.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales for the third quarter ended September 30, 2000 were $3,721,000, an
increase of 25.6% from the same quarter in the prior year. Sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 were $9,548,000, an increase of 26.7% over the
same period in the prior year. Lighting sales decreased $291,000 for the third
quarter and $1,001,000 for the year to date period, as compared to the same
periods in the prior year. A decrease in orders from large customers accounted
for the sales decreases in the lighting product line. The camera product line
accounts for an increase in sales of $1,769,000 for the third quarter and
$3,718,000 for the year to date period, as compared to the same periods in the
prior year. The increase in camera product line sales is attributable to the
$6,200,000 camera contract for which shipment began in December of 1999 and will
continue through April of 2001. As of September 30, 2000 the contract is
fifty-six percent complete. Sales of the third product line, printers, decreased
by $720,000 for the third quarter and decreased $706,000 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 optical photographic printer
market continues to experience consolidation and excess capacity.

The gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2000 increased to 31.4% from
28.2% in the third quarter of 1999. The gross profit margin for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 increased to 29.6% from 28.9% in the prior year period.
Gross margin varies depending upon the product mix of sales. Management expects
that the margins for the year 2000 will be approximately 28%.

Marketing and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of sales to
11.6% for the third quarter of 2000 from 14.3% for the third quarter of 1999 and
decreased to 14.6% for the first nine months of 2000 from 17.9% for the same
period in 1999. Marketing and administrative expenses increased $7,000 for the
third quarter of 2000 as compared to the third quarter of 1999 and increased
$46,000 for the first nine months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.
Research, development and engineering expense decreased by $8,000 for the third
quarter of 2000 compared to the third quarter of 1999 and decreased by $73,000
for the first nine months of 2000 compared to the same period of 1999. The
increase in the marketing and administrative expense reflects additional
compensation earned as the result of increased profitability. Research,
development and engineering expense reflects the reorganization of the
engineering department in 1999 which has resulted in lower cost, primarily due
to a reduction in staff and increased efficiencies.

LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash increased by $1,996,000 to $2,815,000 since December 31, 1999. Operations
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 resulted in $2,089,000 of positive
cash flow.

At September 30, 2000 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.
