Noteworthy PC Card Camera (1997)
The Noteworthy PC Card Camera was a direct clone of the Canon CE300. The correct model name would be NWB0508KAH. It had an ISO of only 100, saved files as JPGs, white balance TTL and a macro mode. The camera came in a plastic case with dedicated software. Apparently only sold in Japan and the software only written for DOS. During operation of the camera, the preview image changed every 10 seconds so a fuzzy movement on the screen was to be expected. The swivel lens could be rotated 180°. In 1996 the original Canon CE300 won a Good Design Award.
