Aside from the new design, picture quality and efficiency are also improved. The Quick Access 2X High Speed Floppy Disk Drive was developed by Sony and it allows for double the speed when recording or playing back images. The high speed spindle motor combined with new DSP also allows for quicker JPEG compression. It takes 4 seconds to write the file. The floppy disk is still the storage media of choice.
Floppy disks continue to be inexpensive, and easy to use.
No hassles with connecting wires or interfaces, just insert into your PC's floppy drive. Each disk will store up to 40 images in VGA mode per disk. Equivalent to a f40 to 400mm zoom lens in a 35mm camera, this powerful zoom lens gives you ample flexibility to compose your pictures just the way you want. The auto macro capability allows you to get as close as one inch to your subject.
