Sony FD91

The Sony Mavica FD91 is a digital still camera released in 1997, notable for its use of 3.5-inch floppy disks for image storage, allowing easy transfer and viewing on personal computers.

It features a CCD sensor with a resolution of approximately 0.92 megapixels, suitable for basic photography needs of the era.

The camera incorporates a 4x optical zoom lens, providing versatile framing capabilities within the frame rate constraints of floppy disk writing speed.

It uses an electronic viewfinder for composition and offers manual and automatic exposure controls to enhance image quality under various lighting conditions.

The FD91 supports PAL and NTSC video modes and has a flash unit for low-light photography situations.

Its interface includes a composite video output, enabling image playback on television screens directly from the floppy disk.

The FD91's floppy disk system enables easy image transfer to computers without specialized cables or adapters, a significant convenience in its time.

Its 4x optical zoom and adjustable exposure settings provide flexibility for different shooting scenarios.

The electronic viewfinder aids in accurate framing and reduces battery consumption compared to LCD-based cameras.

Compatibility with standard 3.5-inch floppy disks made image storage and sharing accessible and affordable.

The camera's lightweight and compact design enhance portability.

With built-in flash and video mode, it offers multiple functionalities beyond simple still photography.

The use of floppy disks limits image storage capacity to approximately 25 images per disk, which is quite restrictive by modern standards.

Image resolution at around 0.92 megapixels results in low-detail images compared to contemporary digital cameras.

Slow write speeds to floppy disks can result in delays between shots and limit continuous shooting capability.

The camera's electronics and sensor technology are outdated, leading to limited performance in low-light conditions and dynamic range.

Lack of modern connectivity options such as USB or memory card slots constrains data transfer methods.

Discontinued status means replacement parts and support are limited or unavailable.
