We started RMF Products as a part time business in 1969. Two years later sales justified building our own building. Our products were
several dissolve controls for
2 slide projectors. These items were sold under
our own
name as well as for Spiratone,
a large NY photography dealer and Buhl Optical, a
lens manufacturer.
The dissolve controls evolved from a
simple 2 projector, manual system, to a completely computerized system
capable of running 50 projectors. These larger systems were used in
permanent presentations in museums, trade shows and other exhibits.
RMF also
designed and sold the first digital darkroom timer. It was also made for Leedal, a darkroom
equipment distributor.
Kodak projector accessories followed with timers, remote controls,
a complete line of molded projector cables and other unique accessories.
In the 1980's one of the first laser pointers
was sold, which was the size of a large flashlight. When laser
diodes became available, small pen size pointers were distributed.
Various gun sights using a laser were also sold.
Seeing a need for a system to aid
in the judging of camera club photo exhibitions, RMF designed several judging
systems. Current systems are fully computerized and are in use all over the world.
We still sell small
bezel and filter assemblies for digital displays, items we created over 40 years
ago.
