Quicktake 150
I have been looking for one of those for years.
Don't like the 200, so was seeking for a 1xx series, just collected one today for 10 €.
(Not mine in the picture)
the Quicktake was not in a box, and nothing else was included with the camera (except the rear strap), but i can't complain.
3 batteries and i was ready, time to find the software

Great find! post some pictures taken by it later?
I will, will probably use the IIsi for the purpose, will need to create some floppy discs for the driver first.
I was also looking for it a few years ago, but I never won a bid on it so I gave up :lol:
I have spent most of the day playing with the Quicktake.
Well playing is nor really appropriate
First step was to find the software (i was lucky to find the French one -just for fun as US one will have been ok)
Next step was to get a set of floppies ready, so out the Powermac G4 and the Usb floppy drive (in the end one disk was bad, but anyway...)
Then out the IIsi' s (both units) a keyboard, a mouse, a display...
First try didn't worked (one of the Floppy Drive has gone bad) but in the end i got the software working great.
The process is very long and you need 4 floppies for the Quicktake 150 (just 2 for the 100)
At the end, the software will ask again the first floppy and a reboot.
using the camera is really easy, just plug the serial cable and ask for a connection...nothing more.
A double click and pictures are there, this little cam is working flawlessly :b&w:
My wife and kid playing Skylander :lol:
Well to be honest, quality looks pretty poor (seems better with the RasterOps card) but the Photoflash software provided will help to improve things a bit...but not much.

Photoflash looks like a cheap Photoshop soft :
When i first used the camera, i noticed 6 pictures were already there, so it was no surprise to discover those in the memory.
The Quicktake seems to have been used in a firm, as all pictures are showing people working behind computers.
The only surprise came from one of those pictures:
Look at the Ibook, and at the sticker !!

Nice clamshell, I have a few of those. Wonder what he had the monitor hooked to?
