As you probably already guessed, the most amazing thing about this camera is FDD.
The camera is working properly, it cheerfully takes off and shows what it took, a floppy disk was found in the kit, it’s about the same age as the camera, the most amazing thing is that it still hasn’t sprinkled. About 20-40 pictures in standard quality, and 15-20 in high quality are placed on one diskette. The camera briskly rustles the drive, the feeling is simply unforgettable when after the flash there is a rustling of the drive;)

Well, then a few photos of this camera from different sides.








There was not a single working drive at home.
Tomorrow at work, I will take off the results of the shooting and put it in an article.
Thank you all, if you are interested in the topic, I can continue the topic of old cameras, including non-digital ones.
