Summary: Great images fun to play around with
Review: I first used the camera at work the instant I saw it I wanted one.Having had a baby recently I wanted the conveinience of this wonderful piece of technology. Great for emailing images to family and friends. The lens cap is a problem and the lcd screen but great for indoor work and playing around with the images in photoshop 5 is wonderful. An amazing piece of technology. Unfortunately the close up lenses advertised on the box are not available in Australia.

Summary: A Recorder of Life
Review: This is simply a great product that never forgets what it can do best. No, it is not the best, most fully-featured digital camera on the market. But it must surely be the simplest to use, with a price-to-quality ratio that's off the scale. I had become increasingly concerned that life's everyday events were passing me by unrecorded--you know the kind of events that one might like to look back on, but that are simply not worth the hassle and expense of traditional film processing. This camera is a Recorder of Life. Light, simple, and good quality pictures. The rechargable battery lives long, and floppy discs make archiving so easy. A must-have!

Summary: Ideal for casual uses, I love it
Review: I bought this model over the higher-resolution Sony versions, and I'm very satisfied. If you want 1024x768 pictures, go ahead and spend the extra money. But this one does just great. The ability to pop in a fresh diskette and keep shooting is addictive. Preview and delete shots easily. Remarkably good battery life. The 10x zoom is amazing, will blow you away. I've used it to document everything from the wiring and hoses on my sailboat to furniture we might want to add to our home. Incredibly convenient, simple to use. One thing to watch for: bright sunlight behind you can wash out the LCD display so it's hard to see what you're shooting. So just find some shade or reposition your shot. Only if you're stuck in the Sahara is it that a big deal. Highly recommended, you'll love it.

Summary: Brilliant
Review: Its Amazing! You simply throw a disk in, take up to 40 pictures per disk, then slide it into your computers disk drive. And you don't even NEED a computer. You easily put a phone cord into the camera and use its email mode. And the best part: You can view your pictures right from the screen and delete them. Think of all of those horrible pictures you spend money to get developed. And also you don't get it developed, just use your comp. And it runs in a jpg format that practicly everyone has. You don't need to install software to view your pictures!

Summary: Very Nice Camera-Sony!
Review: I purchased the Sony MavicaMVC-FD73 on the 4th of July. Wonderful gift! I cannot find enough pictures to take. The zoom is awesome. the pictures print up good enough for framing. The battery life is a plus, the floppy disk is a plus. I only wish the camera were alittle smaller. I am very pleased with this camera.

Summary: Excellent high quality affordable camera......
Review: Once the battery pack is charged, you are taking pictures almost as soon as the pack is inserted into camera. The only set-up is the date and time. The menus are simple to understand. The fact that the pictures are saved to a 3.5" disk is of course a huge plus. I couldn't be more pleased.

Summary: A first-class, easy-to-use Digital camera~~
Review: I bought the first Mavica model issued and have been very pleased indeed with it. With its convenient zoom lens and excellent automatic focussing and exposure, it produces superb results. I did suggest to Sony that they develop some kind of folding hood for the large "view finder" as it is difficult to see the image if the sun is shining on it (and it usually is, because you normally take photos with the sun behind you.) They did not deign to respond!

Summary: Top-notch camera, EXCELLENT sepia, VERY easy to use.
Review: I've taken about 300 pictures using this camera. The color photos are very good, but the real power of this camera is its sepia setting (i.e. takes "old" style B&W photos with a touch of yellow). They are really SUPERB, and has gotten me taking photos of everyone. Best points: - uses regular diskettes, so easy and cheap. - no-brainer to use. - top notch photos all round. - great price.
