Mavica Floppy Disk Digital
Camera, 1990's
The Sony Mavica Digital Camera was highly popular as one of the first
digital cameras simply because you could transfer photos from the camera
to your computer on a floppy disk. When digital cameras first came out,
the question was always how one gets the digital photos from the camera
to the computer. There was a lot of "compatibility" problems.
The Mavica solved that problem by simply storing the images on a floppy
disk which everyone liked. You would simply remove the floppy disk from
the camera and insert it into the floppy disk drive of your computer.
Today, more and more computers doesn't even have floppy disk drives. The
Mavica hay-day wasn't all that long ago and is a good example of how quickly
the digital camera and computer products have developed in just a few
years.
| The camera features included: 0.03 mega pixel resolution |
The Mavica was quite a camera for it's time. Later models included digital
movie features but since the camera wrote to a floppy disk, disk space
was very limited. The first Mavicas sold for about $495.00
