Summary: FIRST TIME DIGITAL CAMERA USER
Review: A GREAT CAMERA. AMAZING HOW MANY THINGS THIS LITTLE BABY CAN DO.FLOPPY DISC STORAGE IS BY FAR THE BEST AND EASIEST WAY TO TAKE PHOTOS. A GREAT FEATURE IS THE ABILITY TO COPY A FLOPPY RIGHT INSIDE THE CAMERA TO GIVE TO SOMEONE THAT WOULD LIKE YOUR PICTURES. THE ONLY SHORTCOMING OF THIS CAMEA IS THAT THE RESOLUTION IS NOT UP TO 35MM FILM. BUT THE CONVIENCE FAR OUTWEIGHTS THE CONS.

Summary: I Really did love this camera
Review: But with the new ones coming out, I felt a little outdated.
I definiteltly love the floppy disk feature of holding images. It makes life soooo much easier!
Whenever I ran outta discs, someone always had extra or I could easily buy them very cheap.The only bad thing was the battery life was soooo short and towards the last few months Ive had nothing but disc errors and lost pics. I finally upgraded to a new camera but I don't regret this one at all.

Summary: Outstanding Camera
Review: Easy to use, stores on floppy disks which go directly into the computer (no cables or any hassles). Creates fantastic pictures with the ability to manually set any feature you like, or use the automatic capabilities which are well designed. I use this camera now for nearly 2 years and have not used my film driven SRL Pentax any more, nor will I ever buy film again.

Summary: Kudos from a long-time 35mm SLR camera fan! 5 stars!
Review: First of all, a confession...I am not "Joe-digital camera." I don't get involved in discussions about how many mega-pixels a camera has, etc., but I know that I am sold on the Sony Mavica line in general, and on this camera in particular...here's my story... When my department found enough funds to purchase a digital camera I campaigned for a SONY Mavica. I had used one briefly, with nothing but success. What a camera, easy to use, and good results, too! We went the rounds about pixels, and the rest...but in the end the point that tipped the scales was that this camera has an option that other makers simply didn't offer, the ability to use standard 3.5" floppies. The 3.5" floppy option is perfect for us. The camera is used by multiple people (including students), who work at their own computers. That means that we could avoid having to track down the patch cords for downloading, hassles associated with multiple station use of software, and etc. Whew! The camera has a 14x zoom capability that makes it easier to use the entire frame. You can take photos at different resolutions, depending on the use and the number of images you want to put on each disc. In addition to still images, this camera lets you make MPEG files. They're fun, and they can be useful. As for ease of use...I was taking pictures in less than 5 minutes after I picked up this camera for the first time -- and this is the first digital camera I ever used! When you take photos you have the option of using a viewfinder or a small LCD screen to frame your photo. As a long-time 35mm SLR camera fan I the eyepiece a comforting option. After a while I suppose I could get used to the LCD screen...it's a reasonable size, and in color. The camera's menu system is easy to use, you can even delete unwanted photos immediately. Be prepared for a camera that's a bit bigger than most digital cameras out there. This camera is comparable in size and weight to many changeable lens 35mm cameras systems. On the plus side, the design is ergonomic. It feels good in your hand. The grips are well designed, there is someplace for your hands and fingers to go. I like that. Our department bought this camera at full price. At the currently discounted price I'm toying with the idea of getting one of these for myself...but I better talk to the wife about that (hint -- that's always a good plan). To sum up, this is a great camera. It's convenient, easy to use, and a great deal to boot! What more could anyone ask? And this is a lot of camera for the money! If you take a lot of photos, the money you save in developing will eventually pay for the camera! P.S. I wonder how long it will be before my 35mm SLR is a collector's item? Probably not too long with cameras like this one around. Happy snapping! Alan Holyoak, Department of Biology, Manchester College

Summary: Great Camera
Review: Got this camera for Christmas (am I lucky or what). Great camera and pretty good resolution. The ability to use floppies is very convenient (and Apple thinks floppies are dead). Easy to send an entire disc of pics to relatives after copying them on my home computer. And even easier to send slideshows of pics as attachments to email. Can also print out nice photos on color printer without a problem. This is a great camera for taking photos that you can do so many things with. Just wish floppy held more data.... Now when Sony finally comes out with their high volume storage disc (100MB), hope they will update this camera to hold THAT...I would buy it in a second.

Summary: Excellent product
Review: I bought my FD91 approximately two years ago, about a week before a two week trip to Africa. In retrospect, that was a bit risky--this was the only camera I brought on the trip. The battery life was quite good, I had no trouble finding extra floppies and all turned out quite well.
Color me quite happy with it.

Summary: 2 years and 10,000+ pictures
Review: I bought my FD91 shortly after they first came out. While the camera does have some limitations, the benefits far outweigh them. Great for pictures in almost all lighting conditions. The 14x lens was the biggest selling point. It's great for everything from wildlife photography to sporting events. The limited resolution can be a problem. Don't plan on enlarging any of the photo's, the pixels become apparent quickly. It was a great purchase at (this price) and at the current price a steal. I hope they put they 14x lens back in in some of the higher resolution models. That would be a killer combination.

Summary: A Military Perspective
Review: I bought this camera while overseas in Macedonia. Since this is a once in a lifetime oppertunity, I bought a once in a lifetime camera. I love it. It seems to do everything but carry itself around. I recommend it for everyone from non-experianced photographers to professionals.

Summary: Easy to use. I love it and use it all the time.
Review: I found it to be wonderful to use. Such good quality. I use it all the time. This is my first digital camera so when I found out what It could do I was thrilled. I love being able to erase badly taken pictures it's amazing and now you can't really mess up taking pictures and the camera won't either. I love photography, but now I love it even more. I love what I can do with pictures on my computer.I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I do. I want to learn more on the mavica photo printer fvp-1 $500.00 and how to buy it. I can't find it on line. I got a paper on it that came with my camera but the phone #'s busy. help!I really want it.Thank you. Tabitha Gilling Bones26@earthlink.com
