Sony MVC-FD91 Digital Floppy Disc Camera

Description

This is the Sony Mavica FD-91, it has a 850,000-pixel progressive scan CCD that yields 1024x768 images.
The first thing you notice is that huge 14X zoom lens. This is the longest focal length lens
available
on
any
digital camera. The other feature that makes this camera unique is that it stores its
images on 1.44MB floppy diskettes. You may not be able to get a lot of images on each diskette but you
can't beat the ease of transferring them to your computer. It also has both a 2.5" color LCD and a color
viewfinder for framing or reviewing your pictures. You can let the FD-91 run in automatic exposure mode
or for creative control you can switch it into either shutter priority or aperture priority mode. Choose any
shutter speed from 1/60 to 1/4000 of a second and freeze even the fastest-moving subjects easily. The
FD-91 is but one model in a long line of Mavica cameras that started with the original FD-5 and FD-7
models. They all share one thing in common, the floppy diskette drive. Some of the newer models like
the
FD-83 (1216x912) and FD-88 (1280x960) have finally broken the megapixel resolution barrier. The
FD-91 has a 2X speed floppy drive, the FD-83 and FD-88 have 4X speed floppy drives. In addition to
capturing still JPEG images the MVC-FD91 also captures up to 60 seconds of MPEG video and audio.
There's two settings: Presentation Mode, up to 15 sec. (320 x 240) and Video Mail Mode, up to 60 sec.
(160 x 112).
