The camera is a very easy and enjoyable product from Sony. It is one of the earlier Mavica models but still has the features of the newer ones. It features a 10x optical zoom that works fast and can be used slowly or quickly thanks to the dimmer style slide switch. The focus range is mind blowing with this camera, it will focus perfectly while lying face down on a surface all the way flat to the lens. Super Super Super Macro. The camera does use floppies which is one reason I enjoy the camera. Not a pro compared to modern standards but fun in my book. For it's age it really does have great battery life even compared to newer cameras. It can take pictures in a pastel, b&w, sepia, and inverse digital filter. The record time for each image is around 5-10 seconds so no burst mode there. The camera can record error if it is shook up too much while writing to the floppy. It does not take video. When highlights are blown out the camera inserts light grey lines within the overexposed areas which can be an eye sore. You can take great pictures at .3MP but since the camera writes to a floppy and need to save space, there is heavy JPEG compression and low DPI. Shutter speed cannot dip below 1/60 second or higher than 1/4000. Cannot use this camera at night unless in a well lit area. You can get about 15-25 images on the floppy before it's full. The flash blows out pictures really bad, it needs to be used like a studio camera, far away with zoom used. The flash hits in one power only and it is max. Overall it is a really fun camera to use as long as your standards are not too prestigious and it was a very functional camera for it's year.Read full review
When asked about what digital camera to buy for a new ebayer - I always suggest this one, especially for someone who takes alot of pictures to put online. This camara is so easy to use and upload pictures , plus takes great shots with or without the flash. The zoom si 10x opetical and takes real nice close ups that shows texture. This uses the 3 inch floppy disc that you just slide into the side and then when all the pictures are taken, just pop the disc into your computer and you can view the pictures on your A drive and move them to your site, ebay auctions or your photo shop program. No messy cords or extra accessories to buy or little memory cards to lose. I have used this for over 8.5 years and have had it sent in only once to be fixed when I used a faulty disc and could not remove it from the camera. This was even easy to do, as I called the company and they had me pack it up and send it to thier department to be fixed for a minimal charge. I had it back within a week and has worked like new ever since!Read full review
This camera is one of the easiest to learn to do. It takes great pictures, with options for focus. They are clear and bright,and you can choose and pick the pictures on the spot what you want to keep. There are only 3 things that fault this camera it that it's uses floppy diskettes,floppy drive, and batterys that are getting hard to fine.But with Ebay they are there to be found. They load on the computer just great and have been easyier for me that other camera's. This is the camera I pick for Emails pictures, and placing my Adds with pictures.I do store my pictures on my computer in folders with copying them. But I also keep my floppys , just in cast the computer gets sick. I keep on floppys the pictures that are irreplacable. So this is still with all that's out there the camera for me!!!for fast quick pictures that look great!!!Read full review
Excellent camera! I had one stolen and wanted to replace it. Like my camera it is easy to use, has simple to work features. Only drawback is it uses floppy disks and they will not be available much longer. My original camera is many years old and works as well as when it was new as does this one. It is reliable easy to use and withstands age.
This is a very user friendly camera that uses floppy dis for saving your photos it takes good pictures best of all you don't need any connection cables to down load your photos just insert the floppy disc into your computer and there they are the only down side most of todays computer does not come floppy disc any longer overall I love the camera and glad to have it.
