I don’t know about you, but to me, this is a thing of absolute beauty. YouTuber LazyGameReviews just posted a video of the 1993 first-person shooter, Doom running on a Kodak digital camera that isn’t much younger than the game itself. The Kodak DC260 was released in 1998 and, surprisingly, it seems to run quite well, too.
When you connect the camera to the computer, you have the choice of downloading ARCSOFT MEDIAIMPRESSION for KODAK Software (for WINDOWS OS-based computers), the KODAK Camera Setup App (for WINDOWS and MAC OS), or both. Easy Capture Software. Compatible with PC and Mac, the program is refreshingly simple, letting you view, edit and save photos in a flash. The software has lots of features: Image Interpolation, Rotate, flip, adjust brightness and enlarge images to your liking without losing color, contrast or image quality. PIXPRO APP DOWNLOADS - FOR PC / MAC. Install the PIXPRO FREE desktop software to your computer for editing and enhancing your 360° videos taken with your PIXPRO SP360 Action Camera. App Description User Manual For PC For Mac PIXPRO 360 VR Suite for SP360, SP360 4K & ORBIT360 4K (4KVR360) Version – v1.4.6.0 for Mac - Minimum of 4GB of ram. TEPS-X for Kodak 16.0.14 for Mac is available as a free download on our software library. The application lies within System Tools, more precisely Device Assistants. The most popular version of the tool is 16.0. The actual developer of this free software for Mac is TriPrism, Inc.
Apple also includes native MAC OS X Image Capture Application support for KODAK DC220, DC260, DC265, and DC290 Zoom Digital Cameras (see Image Capture Application). With the release of MAC OS X v 10.1 on September 29th, 2001, the Image Capture Application now includes support for the KODAK DC240, DC280, DC3400, and DC5000 Zoom Digital Cameras.
The Kodak DC260 had a price tag of around £800 in the UK when it was released, which sounds pretty insane for a 1.6-megapixel camera. The review for it that I linked to above is quite hilarious in its appraisal of the camera, too.
The resolution of digital cameras for business and consumer use has now increased to the point — 1.6 megapixels — at which they rival professional cameras.
I wonder what the author of that review would’ve thought back then if he’d known 108-megapixel cameras inside a phone we keep in our pocket would be on the way a couple of decades later.
Anyway, the DC260 actually offered some basic “app” support. There was even an SDK available for download that developers could use to make their own applications for the camera, too, to add custom functionality. Don’t you wish more manufacturers still supported things like that today?
To run those apps, inside the camera is a 66Mhz PowerPC CPU, with 8-megabytes of RAM. It’s basically like having a low-powered version of an Apple Power Mac inside your camera. That means it can also run PowerPC code (not Mac OS software, though). In the video, it’s running a port “Doom for Digita“. Doom’s code was released to the public back in 2012, which allows anybody to edit and recompile it for whatever platform they can for their own personal use.
What I particularly like about this port is that you don’t have to rely on the tiny little LCD on the back of the camera to shoot your bad guys. The Kodak DC260 camera has a composite video output so you can hook it up to your TV and shoot them on the big screen instead.
LGR shows off a few other things running on the camera, including MAME arcade emulator, and an MP3 player.

Maybe in a decade or two, somebody will figure out a way to run something useful on those obsolete old DSLRs and early mirrorless cameras.
