MARK!
Yes, the best quotes are out of context...
Then again maybe you have to be a native English speaker pf a certain
age to know just how funny this is...

Hi Drew,
if you can find suitable connectors (PC-serial is standard and IMO the
camera connector is not very special either), I can find out the
connection scheamatics for you.
I
bought Chinon ES-3000 (=DC50 in white) last winter. Paid a whole Euro
for it on eBay :)
Full set with card, cables, software and manual. Still, I had MUCH
trouble with getting the pictures from card to computer. Damn software
(which is mandatory to transfer pictures from card or camera via
cable) works exclusively on W95. So I had to dig out my old Compaq
Contura from cellar, install the software and transfer pics to
Contura. Then I got another PCMCIA memory card (it's amazing what a
man can have in his drawers, isn't it?) and transfered pics from
Contura to my new laptop. After that I transfered 'em with USB stick
to my desktop workstation. Was it worth it? Hardly... Was it fun? Yes!
BR, Margus

I have a DC50... it's got zoom! it was the first digital camera my
company bought. I used it extensively until we bought a 1.3Mpix
Olympus. Actually I am on the lookout for a serial cable for the
Kodak should anyone have one around??
Cheers,
Drew.

I used to own this digital camera, picked it up in 1997.
I have an older iomega zip drive, 100meg, that i have the dc25
files stored on.
I have tried to find the software via a google search, but it
seems unavailable.
I have a few photos of my parents at their 50th wedding lunch i would
like to try and get off the disk.
Whats the chances any one on the list used the camera and has the
software.??? None i suppose.
I cannot remember if the zip drive(plugs into the printer port)
required software or not.

Dave, the parallel port Zip drives required a driver for Windows.
There's also an alternate cable that attaches those Zip drives to
older Macs via the Mac SCSI port connector.
This may be what you need for Windows ...

However, what format are the images saved in? Possibly not JPEG,
but perhaps Photo-CD?
I had a laugh reading the DC25 manual PDF: http://is.gd/1Gldq
We've come along nicely since the DC25: 5 seconds to produce a
320x240 pixel image. Took a 2 *megabyte* CF card. Yowza!
At the January 1996 MacWorld User Group Breakfast, I won a copy of
the newly released "High Resolution" DC-40. The manual reveals:
http://www.kodak.com/global/en/service/digCam/dc40/manual/dc40english.pdf
that the same 5 secs between images, 8 seconds if you use the flash.
It took 756 x 504 pixels, 24 bit color depth. Still have it
somewhere, in a black and chartreuse case... Yowza indeed!

This thing that you see,
Why in the world,
