A very good no frills competent camera. these were perfect for real estate agents for a good number of years. For starters, has a nice 10x OPTICAL zoom, has field and frame shooting. file size is small about 20~40 pictures on one floppy. Just like cameras today you can see what you just took. and unlike cameras today, the floppy is inexpensive,and still easy to get. ( more reliable too!) just pop out the floppy and put in your computer then read the pixs or just "copy that floppy" on your hardrive. they are robust and very durable. But the BIG thing is just about every computer made can read it's files (pictures). i still have my original camera..it works just fine. one side note: because these thing are a bit hefty, don't drop one on the floor! its own weight is enough to inpart some kind of damage.(i have fix'd some real bad drops) Yet, tip-overs and knock downs and even hard bumps don't affect it. yes its old, the media is some-what out of date...most computers don't even have a floppy..(U can use a usb job just fine)....so what! they still work. 10 out of 10 times they always get the job done period!Read full review
The majority of these cameras work just fine still so long as you get a good battery and charger with them. They are awesome to take period correct photos with and really add a vintage look to the photos. If you want a good conversation starter then this camera is the one for you.

I first purchased this camera back in 1996 for $845.00 It just broke in November 2012 ..Took over 10,000 pictures over them years.. It paid me back 10 times over, I just bought another one for $20.00 which took 10 pictures and Broke down like My first one ... If you ever find one of these camera for $30.00 in great working shape .. Jump on it .... Its a Great Camera ..... I would love to find a place to fix both these cameras I like to go by another one like this for $100.00 that in great working conditions instead of paying $800.00 - $1,000.00 for a new camera which has the same features but just and up to date and style one .....
I purchase the Sony Mavica Camera because I had an older Sony that worked so well and I never had any problems with the camera. At first the camera worked fine and it did what I needed from a work camera, but now it has develop an internal problem and I can no longer use it. So I am in the process of looking for a different camera than the Sony Mavica brand. I am disappointed but its an old camera and I should have purchase a new camera. I believe that the Sony is an inside camera and I am using the camera in an outside setting, using the pictures to show my clients what is needed to repair their home, presently the camera is just not working as I need it too.
The Sony Mavica is my favorite camera to use for my pictures for selling on eBay. Quick & easy to download pictures from the floppy disc. The camera is heavy to use outside of the home but no problem for eBay usage. Easy to use the charger to always have a battery ready for pictures.
