I've recently had the pleasure of borrowing the Sony MVC-FD83 Digital Camera for an extended period of time. After using my own Olympus Camedia D-490 digital camera, and loving it completely, I was surprised at what the Sony near-equivalent had to offer. Also known as the Mavica line of cameras,...

This Sony Mavica FD83 is the best camera we have ever had. I was able to get one at Sears for 10% off - and put it on my account to pay off in 6 months without any finance charge. This camera takes wonderful pictures even in the 640X480 mode which is what I use most of the time. I take a lot of... Read full review »

I should probably thank Jellypoems for starting my mind turning towards my digital camera. I was going to write an epinion on it a while ago, but then there were so many. But, she got me thinking about it again, and hey, I really like my camera.
