Question about Apple's Quicktake Digital Camera

[nickyj182]

I'm a new board user, long time apple user. I was a little curious about the Apple Quicktake camera. I read it has a 1MB flash card. Does it support larger size cards, and two, with my SanDisk flashcard reader, could I import the pics into iPhoto. It seems like a cheap, awsome way to get an apple product, way to get into the digital photography thing. Thanks!

I don't believe it had removable media...

I would NOT recommend it as a way to get into digital photography... it is almost certainly not supported on any modern Mac...

It is a nice collector's item or novelty... but not for real use.

arn is correct,The Quicktake does not have USB support and certainly won't work with iPhoto under OS X. Even if it does have removable media it wouldn't be supported by the SanDisk. My reccomendation is to look into a low-end camera that supports the sandisk format. Try looking at some Olympus cameras.
