These are my first-ever digital photos (first-ever digitally-acquired images of any kind, I should add), taken using a monochrome camera attached to a MacIntosh in 1984 or so. Microglyphics was selling the cameras, which came with software. The camera scanned at about the speed of today's flatbed scanners, so it was very easy to "accidentally" distort objects by moving them during the scan.

Tigger happened to be visiting Durham during the time we were evaluating the camera.

The images were printed on a dot-matrix printer.
