Sony Mavica FD-85

This was my first digital camera. Unless you like using floppies, A LOT, you'll want the optional floppy disk to memory stick adapter. This allows you up to 128MB image storage. Downside to the adapter is the extra "lag" time to write the image to the...

This is the perfect camera for taking photos of eBay items, sending pics over email, etc. The image quality is good, it is easy to use (with well thought out controls) and the accessories are plentiful. The "new-in-the-box" price is a little high (in...

I actually do not own this camera, but had the fortunate priveledge of borrowing a friends camera for 6 months! :) I used it mainly to take pictures of my baby when she was born.

The cost of film and developing has always been my biggest concern. Before CD-Rs and CD-RWs, there was the 3.5-inch diskette. After having lived through the 90s, I've amassed thousands and thousands of them. After looking into the FD85, I realized...

With these cameras going for about $250-$300 on eBay (as of 12/01) this might be a bargain way to get a quality camera for less. I've owned mine for about 2 years now, and I still like it, and haven't seen anything much better.

Ok. I admit it, as soon as I saw one of these in a store, and saw a friend use one of their own. I was hooked. The fact that for a few bucks you could buy a pack of floppy disks and go on a photography rampage played a major role in my deciding to...

I admit at the get-go I got a great buy on this camera. A friend told me Circuit City was discontinuing the Mavica FD-85 and they had one left - no box, no accessories, for $299. Fortunately this friend didn't tell me "no accessories," so when we got...

I bought this Sony Mavica MVC-FD85 to replace the Mavica MVC-FD83. My son used it so much for listing on eBay that I finally gave it to him and bought the FD85. I'm as pleased with it as I was with the FD83. I really like the copy feature and used it...

I bought this camera when I started homeschooling my daughter to record field trips and projects. It was an instant hit! It is a tough camera, I once set it on the bed of a pick up truck and the driver drove 15 miles with it bouncing around in the back...
