Long before you were able to 3D print cameras, there was the Apple QuickTake 100. Released in 1994, it was one of the first digital cameras to hit the market, retailing for a hefty $749 USD ($1,512 in 2023). There were two separate models (Mac or Windows), but both models had the same CCD sensor, which was derived from the same one found in the Kodak DCS 100.
There were no focus or zoom controls, although it did have a built-in flash, as the fixed-focal length lens boasted an equivalent angle view as a standard 50mm lens for a 35mm film camera. Autoexposure was set by the QuickTake 100 , which controlled both shutter speeds (1⁄30 to 1⁄175) as well as aperture (f/2.8 to f/16) using a film speed equivalent to ISO 85. The camera was able to store a total of 8 photos at 640 x 480 resolution, 32 photos at 320 x 240 resolution, or a combination of both resolutions. One caveat: there was no way to preview the photos on the camera or delete individual shots. You needed to use the bundled Apple QuickTake software to download the photos and edit them.
