Sony MVC-FD73 Floppy Digital Camera, estimated period 2000–2010, physical condition good, functional condition tested and working, serial number 23454, comes with new floppy disks in the box, original Sony BC-V615 charger, and a non-original but working new battery.
Description from the seller
The MVC-FD73 was Sony's base model in the third generation of digital Mavica cameras, introduced in 1999 alongside the Mavica FD83 and FD88. As with earlier digital Mavica models, standard 3.5-inch diskettes were used for storage, which simplified transferring images to a computer and contributed to the popularity of these digital cameras at the time.
The sensor resolution of 640 × 480 pixels is modest (primarily suitable for web or e-mail use), but helps keep file sizes small (at the highest quality settings a 1.4 MB diskette can hold up to 20 JPEG files). The lens specifications were more generous: the f/1.8–2.9 4.2–42 mm lens provides an equivalent reach of 40–400 mm in 35mm format.
Like the original FD7, the FD73 offered four built‑in "image effects": sepia, black-and-white, color negative, and "solarize".
comes with a box of floppy disks (new, probably), the original Sony BC-V615 charger and a non-original but working NEW battery.
neat device, works fine and looks tidy
carefully packed
