I agree. It would've been interesting to find out what their reaction was, especially if they didn't know about it. Given its limited release in Japan and Australia, I'd wager that most current Sega employees don't even know about it.
Wow. So, a friend of mine asked me if I'd ever heard a rumor about Sega making a camera some 11 or 12 years ago. I said "No, but that would be cool if they did." He said he'd heard someone say something about it, and then that was basically the end of the conversation. Then today I see this video and my mind is fully blown. IT DID EXIST! Sadly my friend is no longer a friend, so we won't be able to pick our conversation back up, but still this is cool to learn about. Thanks for this!
@@inspirationalman1752 OP never came back to confirm so let me pick up where he left off. In 12 years of school, you have a lot of friends. Some like Sega, others unfortunately like Nintendo. You think you’ll be friends forever... until you drift apart. I had a friend for 7-8 years that I thought I would have for the rest of my life. We always talked about how we wanted to live next to one another and raise our families together. Until she decided she no longer wanted that. After graduation we started to drift apart. No more daily conversations, no more getting together, that was that. It broke my heart. The one person that I thought I would always have by my side was gone. That’s a hard pill to swallow. From this I got upset, angry and just plain confused. What had I done so wrong? After a while I had confronted this friend and asked her what happened to our friendship. Her explanation was kind of a slap to the face. She had basically said I was self-absorbed and she was sick of it. Now in my defense, everyone can be self-absorbed at times. Though, for the most part I was a great friend in my opinion and I would do anything within reason for her. I truly just think she had found people that she thought were better and that was the easiest way to explain it. A few months later I left for college. After I was all moved in I figured I would reach out one more time to see if I can fix what had been destroyed. It didn’t work but at least I can say I tried. After that I fully gave up on the idea. It was the closure that one may need during a break-up. Some do say that friendships hurt worse than romantic relationships when they’re broken up. After that all was great. I had made new friends at school and still kept in touch with the loyal friends from high school that I still had. I eventually got over being upset over this one broken friendship and started focusing on making other quality ones. It took a while but I finally was able to get to that point. During winter break, one of my best friends from home wanted to go out to eat and go skating with me and this former friend. To be completely honest, it was weird. It was as if I were meeting her for the first time. I wasn’t sure what to say or how much to say. I don’t trust her anymore to indulge more than surface knowledge. Since then, we went back to not speaking to one another. I’ve been told from sources that others have noticed that she’s changed and she actually tarnished more friendships than just ours. The moral to this story is that life goes on after drifting apart from a friend no matter how much it hurts. People change both for the better and the worst, but they change. You’re not the same person you are over the years, so why should you expect other people to be? Also, you may just go different directions in life and have to move on to your own thing. All of this is A-okay. If you have a similar experience, my best advice to you is to just move on. Take the experience as a learning experience. Figure out how to pick out a failing relationship and try to repair it or just let it go sooner; before it rips your heart out (it’s not fun to reach that point, trust me). Then focus on other things like school, work, etc. Friendships, like romantic relationships, will fall into place. Who knows, you may even find the best of friends in the most unexpected locations. Just keep your head up and live your life to the fullest, with or without that person. So, to conclude, don't act like a big man at Mortal Kombat when you can't even perform half the fatalities. I'm glad this toxic Nintendo fanboy is out of my life.
Looks like they intended to have a battery-caddy, a block of plastic which you'd insert batteries into and then insert the whole thing. But then decided that it'd be cheaper for people to have to insert batteries past springs.

Ooh, I remember the SmartMedia flash memory cards. My dad bought an Olympus CAMEDIA C-860L back in the day, which thoroughly blew my mind. It had a freakin' LCD on the back, so you could instantly see your photos, which was just impressive to no end. I think he bought it for a vacation on the Canary Islands, and I remember being more occupied with the camera than anything else.
Amazing. If I would have gotten the chance to use something like this as a kid I would have been blown away, ESPECIALLY because it's a SEGA product. Althoouugh I barely know the ins and outs of cameras even TODAY, AND it being a battery killer like their portable systems would have meant that I'd have hardly been able to use it since my parents likely wouldn't have wanted to waste so much money on batteries. Great stuff!
What I love about these types of videos is seeing how far we’ve come technology wise. I bet back in ‘96 the pictures you took with a camera like that looked amazing given the tech we had at that time. I wonder what the pictures we’re taking now will look like in 20 years compared to the tech we will have then.
Technically correct that it was their only proper camera, but the DreamEye could be used as a digital camera as well as a webcam (it had a snap on battery pack)
Woah! that's cool, I never even knew that SEGA even made a camera! Thanks for making this video Clint, I really enjoy your videos and it'd be awesome if someday you noticed me 😂
I love how the camera makes any image look like it was taken in the 90's. I'd love to get an old digital camera from around then to take loads of photos with, but I know I would have to get an old computer and other equipment to get it to work.
I remember my parents winning an AFGA digital camera from AOL back in 1999 and it had a little flip top above the LCD screen to allow natural light to light the screen when outside. It was pretty cool for time. It even had the ability to record sound clips.

This is awesome to see! Thank you for making videos on this stuff. The Sega rabbit hole can go pretty deep once you get going in it. Anything from big screen TVs in the late 70s to karaoke machines and bath light shows in the 90s and 2000s.
A few years ago a friend of mine bought some SEGA branded sunglasses with a digital camera built in from a second hand shop. No idea if it was legitimate but it was interesting nonetheless.
Amazing find as always LGR, never heard of pre 90’s digital camera with macro! Also love how it appears as thought the lcd viewfinder has a higher resolution than the photos it puts out! XD
As a huge camera nerd I loveeee seeing these retro camera videos, seeing how such a brilliant technology has evolved throughout the years is so cool! Please keep them coming:)
Had the bundled the seria cable and software with it it would have been a cool product though they should have added an apperture knob to compensate for the overexposure problem. Otherwise it looks like a decent product. Also LGR, smartmedia is no more than a nand flash memory on a card, worst case you should be able to read it with an arduino, or ask someone to hack a SM reader and hook an arduino to its socket. My guess is the card is not 3.3v signal compatible so the reader may try operate at 3.3v (i doubt it supplies actually 5v) but the card doesnt respond well at such low voltage.
I consider myself a Sega fan yet I had no idea this was even a thing. Keep up the great work, Clint! Been watching you for too many years to count now and I'm still enjoying the content you're making.
A digital camera from 1996 that would be interesting to feature as a video, which I still use frequently, is the Kodak DC-50. It uses CF cards with a PC ATA card adapter and by using Paint Shop Pro 4 that you can still download off the Web to convert KDC format images, it still takes pretty impressive photos. The main trick to remember with earlier CCD digital cameras is to underexpose them 1-2 stops in-camera if the settings permit. Love your videos by the way 😀
3:00 That camera store still exists, I go there to get my film developed to this day. They even have a camera museum upstairs, and I wouldn't be surprised if they kept one of these in their collection.
Wow! This thing was amazing for the day. I remember seeing my first digital camera in the wild at about the same time (it had 640x480) but it was mind-blowing and probably cost st least 3 times what this thing did. I mean... it would have had only a two-year run, but releasing this in the US in the day (with the PC connection kit) would have been a giant boon for SEGA.
I am from Australia and remember seeing this camera in a local camera shop. It instantly reminded me of the grey Sega Saturn with it's color scheme. At this time I was heavily into Saturn import games so the camera was somewhat exciting to see. I would have loved to have bought it but it was pretty expensive here, could have been $500 - $700 AUD, can't remember exactly. The camera shop eventually shut down, I should have made an offer for the camera.
for '96, that's still really cool. I remember having to drive into town to have my pictures scanned, then paying for that and a floppy to get images on my PC
Japan has and always will make awesome tech, also what happend with America´s controbutions are they dead. Clint is a AWESOME LAZY DUDE :)

Many thanks to show the weight in grams, that made it easy to understand. In 1996 we were still using analogic cams for some years, digital were very expensive, much more than that one.
0:13 That was a nostalgia SLAM right there, thank you very much; I needed that, lol I remember seeing someone a little while back carrying one of these around. It didn't work and was just a display item, but was still interesting all the same. Now that I know that it was the only camera Sega ever made, it certainly makes for an interesting conversation starter. Imagine trying to take pictures of that mega-collection of tech in Texas with this camera; be sure to bring about a hundred dozen batteries! lolz (and some serious painkillers)
I just love how LGR stays silent during an operating system's start up, as if to pay respects to that OS.

This could have been a major contender especially considering SEGAs preexisting retailer relations.
did you miss the part about interpolated 320x240 from ~160x120?
I had Casio QV-30 at the time, and while it produced really bad quality photos, it was miles ahead of this thing.
Also could be that it was more to try and help sell their weird graphics tablet, and they barely turned a profit on these things.
i'm sure if you adjust for inflation its eye bleeding, the japanese had slow pc adoption which is why they had these weird things.
it was in the print club fad
I love this era of electronic design, because of the massive use of chunks of hard and soft plastics. There was so much touchable mass on the product, that design could go really wild and create an entire different theme around a product.
This camera is just great for its time. I wonder if people at the e3 saw you use it in sega's booth and thought "this must be Sega's new product!" xD

8:17 No Start button, so presses
What?! *presses the buttons* Hmm... Still working on Windows 10 :)
Just like ctrl+shift+esc opens task manager :)
@@ToTheGAMES Exactly. I use this method for several years now :)
Right click on the Start menu is interesting too :D
What do you mean no start button?
@@SarahLJP Start menu - Start button
At least, I have called the Windows button on the keyboard always like this
Good for Model M users out there.
Wow! This thing was amazing for the day. I remember seeing my first digital camera in the wild at about the same time (it had 640x480) but it was mind-blowing and probably cost st least 3 times what this thing did.
I mean... it would have had only a two-year run, but releasing this in the US in the day (with the PC connection kit) would have been a giant boon for SEGA.
Sega did everything usually first then someone else took the idea and made money with it
I give my respect to anyone who provides separate measurement for us metric users. Thanks LGR.
The Gamegear would kill for that battery life.
I am from Australia and remember seeing this camera in a local camera shop. It instantly reminded me of the grey Sega Saturn with it's color scheme. At this time I was heavily into Saturn import games so the camera was somewhat exciting to see. I would have loved to have bought it but it was pretty expensive here, could have been $500 - $700 AUD, can't remember exactly. The camera shop eventually shut down, I should have made an offer for the camera.
"my waves are now vapor"
I love the amount of work you put in to make it pc compatible.
Japannnnn is wayyy ahead of the rest of the world!
for '96, that's still really cool. I remember having to drive into town to have my pictures scanned, then paying for that and a floppy to get images on my PC
Japan has and always will make awesome tech, also what happend with America´s controbutions are they dead.
Clint is a AWESOME LAZY DUDE :)
Many thanks to show the weight in grams, that made it easy to understand. In 1996 we were still using analogic cams for some years, digital were very expensive, much more than that one.
I'm a simple man, I see lgr, I watch lgr.
Enjoyed this one, thanks for the content LGR
Sega spelled backwards is ages so it was released ages ago.. get it?
0:13 That was a nostalgia SLAM right there, thank you very much; I needed that, lol
I remember seeing someone a little while back carrying one of these around. It didn't work and was just a display item, but was still interesting all the same. Now that I know that it was the only camera Sega ever made, it certainly makes for an interesting conversation starter. Imagine trying to take pictures of that mega-collection of tech in Texas with this camera; be sure to bring about a hundred dozen batteries! lolz (and some serious painkillers)
