Apparently pointing out an eBay listing with a link gets deleted.

SoundVision brand cameras.

This person probably got this at a estate sale. TEN 1998 Sound Vision tethered digital using a triple exposure/color wheel system.

Rare boat anchors.

But TEN intact ones with parallel cables and Windows 3.1 drivers?

Rotsa Ruck!

They were $2,200 each in 1998.

Pretty much every section has it's own rules.

What are your plans for this collection? Looks like some cool stuff.

Win 3.1??? Tried to upgrade to that but the machine I have wouldn't accept it. That said, could someone please tell me what better, beefier, more powrful computer I might buy? (My budget is presently slightly meager, but if that same someone could perhaps co-sign for me, maybe I might be able to get financing for what? maybe $10,000 or so?.... Any co-signers out there? Please? Don't know that I can live without this Sound Vision setup and it's ten intact cables!

IT'S TEN INTACT SERIAL CABLES!

bE STIll mY Hort! (Or at least until my co-signer comes through for me. In 5....... 4...... 3..... 2.... 2 and 1/2... 2 and 1/4............................. 1 and 1/8th................................................... a 16th........................................)

I still have a SCSI terminator. Its junk, but how can one discard a small relic called a "Scuzzy Terminator" ? Sounds like a Marvel Universe Super Villain !

Rolling on the floor laughing!

I had a huge box of SCSI cables and rare Apple junk that I took to the recycler in 2014. I'd collected it for 30 years. Now I have another big box full of unused historical junk — land line phones and cables, old routers, an old Mac, a couple of old PCs, an antique pair of walkie talkies, some old mid-1990s monitors, a CD burner, old cassette recorders, an HDMI to VGA converter, miscellaneous heat sinks and processors, RS-232 crap... It's all formerly precious stuff that I kept, thinking I'd need it some day. Next time we move... It's all going to the recycler.

Rules on links are automatically by AI flagged. so without the www perhaps with the eBay description parameters only a quick google would find the link.

I have Windows 3.1 machine with SCSI interface. What doesn't make sense is the price. I would buy it for $50.

LOL. I am not the owner of these. Someone on eBay wants $1,000 for the whole set.

The company that made them in 1998 gave me one and I still have it. Happily, I opted for the parallel port version and recently bought a Windows XP laptop that has parallel, serial AND USB ports AND DVD so I should be able to run it after all these years.

Apparently someone is selling this batch from the estate of a person involved with the old LEAF camera system.

Essentially it makes 3 BW photos shot through R, G and B filters and combines them.

This is meant for still subjects but moving clouds come out very odd!

We've come a LONG way since 1998.

I'd love to fool around with an old DOS laptop again.

My first was a T-1000 Toshiba with Zen Word on a disk. When I quit my radio job and wrote my audionbook cassette guide "The DOS Tape" I used it to confirm what I was saying was accurate, but wrote the script on an early Mac!

But now DOS laptops are "collectable."

Sometimes there is a little residual value in the lenses if they are not too proprietary.
