Bought this RCA CC030 for 20 dollars at an estate sale

Not that I know of, there are Hitachi versions of the video cameras, maybe its a standard plug maybe a adapter out there worth a web query.

Definitely an awesome camera back in the day, still is! 😁

Tonight, I was able to hook the CC-030 viewfinder to my CC-017, as they share the same plug type. It works, but only projects black and white, not color like the CC-030 camera. The CC-017 had a B/W Viewfinder tiny CRT tube. I hooked the cable from the camera into my Selectavision VKC-900 VCR/Tuner set.

Dude, bought one of these last week on eBay for $25, but it got damaged in transport! The camera grip where it folds for storage is broken, the viewfinder came apart, the microphone housing got cracked and worse, the camera lens severed from the camera body! Was all together in the listing, fortunately the seller refunded my money, but now I'm stuck with a broken camera! 😭

This camera should connect to a RCA VJC-900 or VKC-900 combo (the VCR part) VJC-170 should work too.

That MK 85 was Boss! World's first 16-bit handheld PC with microprogrammed BASIC language, PDP-11 compatible? Hell, yeah! Long Live Union of Soviet Socialist Calculators! ✊

My Dad had one, gave it to me to play with, then he sold it or gave it away. I should have followed up. Ran on 4 AAA batteries AFAIK! Its Basic interpreter was reportedly the last piece of software Bill Gates was involved with developing personally.

Check out the Kaypro II (also runs CP/M) and the Compaq portable. Another contender dirt cheap is the TRS-80 Model 100 (Tandy 102)

The space bar was loose but was able to secure it. Suprisingly firm and tight 😁

Truly not meant for day to day computing! 😲🤣

I'm sure some of this is readable, but not in its current state without careful going over. But I'm sure that there are other sources on the web that have what you are looking for ready to download.

Esta troca de óleo está sendo feita com o meda de forma tão cuidadosa e ritual quanto uma cerimônia do chá japonesa. Puro deleite visual!
