Using software written in 2026 (by @colin_mcmillen) on a computer released in 1983 to extract digital photos from a digital camera released in 1994.
Apple QuickTake 200 connected via serial to my 128K enhanced Apple IIe (video output via composite to CRT and to LCD via VidHD video card) with "large" volumes mounted via CFFA3000 flash storage card.
The 640x480 camera images (JPEGs) are decoded and scaled for display in the double high-res graphics mode at 560x192 monochrome pixels. Just lovely.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🩸🧊 Iron rich #saltwater trapped beneath Taylor #Glacier for over a million years seeps out in red pulses that look like bleeding.
A 2026 study from #Louisiana State University caught an outflow in action using #GPS, #cameras, and temperature #sensors. #Sulfate breathing #bacteria thrive in the dark brine, making Blood Falls a model for life on icy worlds.

“Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs or LPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car's location, date, and time. They also capture your car's make, model, colour, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points.
These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. These systems are marketed as indispensable tools to fight crime, but they ignore the powerful tools police already have to track criminals, such as cell phone location data, creating a loophole that doesn't require a warrant…”

Phew. Finally finished it. Spent a ton of time tweaking it. The build quality was, to put it mildly, “not great” to begin with. Even though it’s from 1955—it’s not like it’s the ’70s or ’80s yet—it should have been decent...
But everything’s uneven—the pressure plate is warped, the film path is a bit crooked, and the case isn’t perfect either.
I had to bend things endlessly, reassemble it, and check it over and over. It turned into a lot, a lot of hassle.
Was it worth going to all that trouble over the “Zorkiy”? It wasn’t. But I have a personal “flaw”—I can’t leave something unrepaired.
As a result, I settled for a compromise—it’s acceptable, even if not perfect.By the way, if they were producing cameras like this today—given the current level of Chinese automated manufacturing—they could be made to be practically perfect. The thing is, it’s hardly worth going to all that trouble today with a focal-plane shutter.
Besides, there are excellent high-tech cameras that deliver superb results—whether digital or film. The Nikon F3 and later models, or the budget Canon SLRs from the early 2000s (300v, 7s, etc.). Or even take a Praktica—the results and quality are already quite predictable with those.
But—I went ahead and restored a Zorki-2S just for the fun of it. At the same time, I traced the evolution of design thinking in photography during the 1950s.

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 05-11-26
I took an off-day from Pook-Emu Bee links yesterday. I am busy today, but let us not let that stop us from our daily selection of links from around the web. 1, Putting the phone down: an Osmo Nano workflow (Wojtek Powiertowski at Behind the Viewfinder. May 10, 2026.) That camera is adorable. 2. Latvian defence minister resigns after Ukrainian drones hit oil depot (Brussels Signal. May 11, 2026.) To be fair to the now-former Defense Minister, I am not sure Ukrainian drone strikes would […]https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/pook-emu-bee-links-for-05-11-26/

Feds Disrupt #IoT #Botnets Behind Huge #DDoS Attacks
#doj joined authorities in #Canada & #Germany in dismantling the online #infrastructure behind 4 highly disruptive botnets that compromised more than 3 million Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as #routers & web #cameras. The feds say the 4 botnets — named #Aisuru , #Kimwolf , #JackSkid & #Mossad — are responsible for a series of recent record-smashing DDoS attacks capable of knocking nearly any target offline

A takto zábavné věci čas od času dělám v práci! 😃🙏
Ovládání PTZ kamer (v podstatě se jedná laicky o robotické kamery 🤖) na koncertu.
Byli jsme 2 operátoři na 4 kamery a k tomu ještě dva živí kameramani. Jeden vedle s dlouhým objektivem na stativu a kameramanka s bezdrátovou kamerou.
Práce pro https://genlive.pro to byla opravdu zábavná. ✌️
