Nice collection, but he wants to sell it. We still have a Sony Mavic camera somewhere with a 3.5" floppy drive. I think it has XGA (1024x768) resolution. I wonder if the battery is still ok.

My two batteries were both dead when I pulled it out of my closet last month. Ordered one on ebay, received it, charged it, put it in camera and then saw it come to life again.

Slid in a floppy disk and failed to write to it when pressing the shutter button on the camera. Didn't get it working and forget if I tried to format the floppy from the camera or not, if such method exists?
