Scitex, EFI Legend Arazi, 76, Passes Away

ISRAEL—Efraim "Efi" Arazi, founder of digital printing firms Scitex and Electronics for Imaging (EFI), has died at the age of 76, Israel National News reported.

While a student at MIT in 1969, Mr. Arazi built the camera the Apollo 11 crew used to broadcast the first pictures of the moon. NASA continued using his camera until 1995. At the age of 25, he invented an auto-focus mechanism that catapulted him to the foreground of the electro-optics industry.
