Apple QuickTake 150 camera pictures in "QuickDraw picture" format cannot be opened by any software I have.
At some point in the dark reaches of the past, I recall being able to Save As… but at the time, I was ignorant of what was to come and was concerned with using as little disk space as possible. 150KB seemed big at the time.
I think the files are compressed as a few .tiff format duplicates fluff-up to over 6X its native format size. Preview shows the thumbnail image as it is compatible; but, the image is blank.
Now, years later, I would like to recover as much of as many past family photos as I can.
It may be that some utility is available. I'm patient and I have a few minutes — my alternative is futility.
Greedy me. I want it all. TIA

I was in the same situation. Finding photos I had taken 20 years ago on my Quicktake 150, but was not able to open them. But I found a solution. There is a OS 9 emulator for OSX that i installed, then i installed the quicktake on the os 9 system abd was able to open and then resave the pics as tiff that OSX can open.
