Sony MVC-FD95 Mavica 2MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Zoom description
The high-end Sony MVC-FD95 combines SLR features with the convenience of a digital camera. The 2.1-megapixel CCD allows for image sizes up to 1,600 x 1,200 pixels, which can be stored on either floppy disks or Sony's own memory stick with an optional adapter. The MVC-FD95 has both an autofocus and manual focus with focus ring. The 10x (20x digital) zoom integrates with Sony's SteadyShot image stabilization technology to provide clear pictures. The lithium battery included by Sony can be recharged with the included battery charger/AC adapter, and it's easy to see how much of a charge you have left with the power meter in the viewfinder. Although it has a built-in flash that features red-eye reduction, the MVC-FD95 also comes with an accessory shoe for an external flash. Occasionally, MVC-FD95 users may want to capture a video of a special moment, and here also the MVC-FD95 can help, due to its capability of capturing up to one minute of MPEG-1 video. The MVC-FD95 is packed with features (such as the e- mail mode, which captures pictures at 320 x 240 pixels) that make it suitable for almost any environment. |

Best ready to print pictures camera on the market
|
I have had a Mavica MVC FD95 for over 4 years now. It uses a diskette for storage. The reason I chose it was the built in flash, the universal ability to print, and the Zooming lense for those great Memphis Zoo panda and other animal pics when they are far away from the viewing area. There might be better cameras, but none are as easy to use and take GREAT pictures.
I love the two viewing areas. I look at the view scrren and see how the picture looks. You can sit at a wedding (I actually did this)and look at the screen and decide to keep or erase the picture. The diskettes are easy to keep in a dess coat at the wedding and change. My pictures looked better than the paid professional ones the couple paid big bucks for!!!! Plus, I did a brief video with the camera of the wedding march (with sound).
My buddy is a camera buff and he has a FD 75, and when I pulled my 95 out, well it psyched him out with the look and the size.
Every development studio and computer accepts diskettes, so it is easy to sent to another person. This is helpful to send by mail. You know those internet phonelines will not sent pictures very fast, and many have limits to the mail size to avoid spam. Just drop a diskette in the mail and grandma with her older clunkier hand-me-down computer can see the pics of the grandkids.
Now for the real techie, you can use the memory stick adaptor. I bought mine remanufactured and didnt get the adaptor for memory stick. It is a great add-on, but not essential. I'll stay with the diskettes, because they are cheaper, easy to get and easy to use in any computer.
One suggestion, get an extra battery. there are used ones and clone ones now that are cheaper ($15-$22.00), so it isn't the big investment it used to be of $35. to $55.00. Sony uses the same battery in numerous products. I found the battery gave out too quick (or I used it too much). Plus, when you use the camera, you will be in a place that a recharge is not possible, and the extra battery is a great help.
My only complaint is the switch from still-to-video-to-play pops too easy from one to the other. It has really played havoc with the pictures. BUT I think that is more all thumbs me and not the camera.
Suprisingly, the price of a 95 has held up well in resale. I paid maybe 60.00 more than it is re-selling for now. That is a perk, if you plan to resell after a set time of use.
