>Single frame video tape recording...does it exist?  

I routinely use a "record-frame-on-demand" tape recorder for my research
(vision research). It is made by a company called GYYR in Anaheim, CA.
I believe it cost ~$3,000 (4 years ago) and is aimed at the security industry 
for doing time-lapse recording. It uses standard VHS cassettes and is based
on an RCA machine. It has a TTL interface and I control it with my PDP11
computer. I would be happy to provide more information on request.
