A lot of vintage digital gear. Are you over on the other place too?
im only here cuz im banned from the other red place lol
Lol I came here after the third party apps thing. Sadly the other place is still better for stuff like photography imo just because it's that much more active.
yeah... theres no dedicated place for mavicas :(.
Look at you big ballin with RAM just sitting around
J/k nice variety of Mavicas!
what can i say, the ram stick was just sitting there in a mother board in some display case in an it classroom. when no one was looking it just happened to fly into my pocket (because of the wind ofc)
Very nice! I've been so temped to buy that lego slr camera for years now. Those old sony floppy disk cameras are fun.
you should 100% get a sony mavica. all my mavicas apart from 1 i got as untested and they work perfectly and i got them all for under 30 quid each.
I'm curious to hear what your workflow is for accessing photos from them in 2025. (USB floppy drive, I assume?)
ok so, theres 1 camera that i have (The sony mavica fd200) that has a direct usb connection to a computer. lets say i take pictures on another camera, i transfer the floppy disk and battery to the fd200 and plug it into my computer and from there i can access the pictures from there. this also applies to my only battery thats actually working. i have to put it inot my fd200 to charge it since it has a charging port on the side of the camera since i dont have a seperate charging cradle for my np330 battery
That's more interesting an answer than I was expecting! I didn't even consider that any floppy disk Mavicas could be modern enough to have USB. The only time I used one of these, you could still assume a floppy drive in every computer.
the last one that used floppies was made in 2002.
I still have a mavica!
which one?
Its silver. I do not have it near me to look at the model. Holds up well! All my floppies are readable still.
This is nice. I should do the same thing. I'm not sure where some of my cameras even are though. And many of them are film, not digital.
find them!
Gorgeous collection! Also, is that a Kane & Lynch comic book?
Yesss. Kane and lynch 2 is a peak game
Nice collection! And what cam did you use to take that picture?
My Google pixel 7 lol
I had an early digital camera (Sony? Casio?) that could send pictures via infrared. With a Nokia 9110 you could then send a (badly) grey scaled picture via fax.
On the newer Sony cameras: do the "floor model stickers" (the ones that advertise capabilities) contribute to the item's collect-ability at all? Back in the day, I always removed those since they kind of alter the device's aesthetic and they're clearly not intended to keep.
i think it does. i just like to get ones with stickers on them because without them having stickers they just look naked.
