In the 1995 James Bond Film Goldeneye, the Aston Martin DB5 driven by James Bond featured an Alpine 7817R CD Tuner which acted as a communication device and colour printer/fax. When Bond takes a picture of Xenia Onatopp from the Fort Antoine Theatre viewpoint, the digital monocular-camera (yet to be identified) sends the image to the Alpine system which prints it out when Bond get's back to his car.
A replica of the print-out that comes out of the Alpine can be downloaded in the Bond Lifestyle Download area!
This Alpine car system get's several seconds of close-up screentime in the film, so it makes nice collector's item, if you can find one on eBay or other second-hand marketplaces.
