The QuickTake 100 was first shown at Tokyo MacWorld on February 17, 1994, exhibited for the first time in America at the Photo Marketing Association trade show, and released for sale on June 20 of that year.
The initial list price was US$749 (equivalent to $1,290 in 2019).
It was one of the first digital cameras marketed to consumers, emphasizing ease of use.
It received a Product Design Award in 1995, and early reviews were enthusiastic about the industrial design and ease of use.
Two separate models (for Macintosh or Windows) were sold; the bundled software and serial cable were specific to the host computer's operating system, but the camera hardware itself was identical.
The Windows version of the QuickTake 100 was released by December 1994.
The CCD sensor was claimed to be derived from the sensor fitted to the Kodak DCS 100.

The camera had a built-in flash, but no focus or zoom controls, as the fixed-focal length lens had an equivalent angle of view as a standard 50mm lens for a 35mm film camera; the fixed-focus lens captured a range from 4 feet (1.2 m) to infinity; autoexposure was set by the camera, which controlled both shutter speeds (ranging from ​¹⁄₃₀ to ​¹⁄₁₇₅) and aperture (from f/2.8 to f/16) using a film speed equivalent to ISO 85.
The flash has a maximum range of 9 feet (2.7 m).

The QuickTake 100 was capable of storing eight photos at 640×480 resolution, 32 photos at 320×240 resolution, or a mixture of both sizes.
All photos were stored at 24-bit color.
There was no way to preview them on the camera, nor was there any way to delete individual photos from the camera (though there was a recessed 'trash' button which would delete the entire contents of the camera).
The bundled Apple QuickTake software was used to retrieve photographs from the camera's internal memory, providing basic editing tools (rotating, resizing, and cropping) and allowing the user to select a file format and color bit depth for export.
