               picture signals representative of image phenomena                      
          occurring      outside said housing,                                        
               (ii)           a video recorder and reproduction device                
                         electrically coupleable to the output of the                 
          camera and                                                                  
               having an output for picture signals reproduced from a                 
               record member supported in said housing,                               
               (iii)          a video-signal display unit including a                 
          display        screen viewable from the exterior of said                    
          housing, and                                                                
               (iv) a printer electrically coupled to the video                       
                         recorder and reproduction device;                            
               (b) a manually operated selection switch having two                    
                         positions, wherein, without operating any other              
          switch, in     the first position, the video-signal display                 
          unit is coupled     to the output of said camera and, in the                
          second position,    the video-signal display unit is coupled to             
          the output of       said video recorder and reproduction                    
          device; and                                                                 
               (c) a manually operated printing trigger that, when in a               
               predetermined position, causes the printer to output a                 
          hard           copy of the image displayed on the screen.
