That is a deliciously geeky bit of engineering right there.

 

Doesn't the GB only have 4 levels of brightness for its pixels? So what's that, 2-bit? Those moon pics are great.

Awesome. I imagine, like me, many peoples introduction to digital photography was likely a game boy camera.

 

My first standalone was a palmcam with a zip drive I paid nearly $500 in 2000 ish for. It's a well built camera, and one of the few that survived till I replaced it some years later with a cannon 3mp camera.

Those are pretty sweet pics.

 

My dad had a Sony Mavica that wrote to floppies at that time. The GB camera and Canon lens did a much better job. We recently found a few floppies and a USB floppy drive that we used to pull some images off the camera. Those things were brutal.
