These are not
professional photos.
But if you are here, it's not for the resolution.
But if you are here, it's not for the resolution.
All photos pictured here have been captured by a Sony FD Mavica on floppy disks. This is technology from the year of 2001 — there is nothing modern or high-resolution about this operation.
The Mavica takes images with 640 pixels of width and 480 pixels of height, otherwise known as Standard Definition. Unlike Full HD with a whopping two megapixels, we are working with 0.3 megapixels spanning a wonderful 4:3 canvas. If you were wondering about resolution, that's what we've got.
Being an FD Mavica, photos are captured on floppy disks. Three and a quarter inch platters of iron oxide, revolving to carry 1.44 MB of data, the driving technology of floppies predate the camera by three decades and outlived its model year by another. Manufacturers no longer produce the medium, nor is it standard to find a reader for them in personal computers.
