MAVICA MOMENTS
Obviously, all pictures on
these pages were taken with a Mavica, in this case an FD 71. What you see on
this page are pictures I took in the early stages of ownership. They were
taken to familiarize myself with the many capabilities the camera offers.
The panorama below depicts a
neighbor's backyard, decked out for a Halloween party. The animation is of
one of my dogs, and is done with the "Multiple" mode that lets the
camera take nine exposures in quick succession. These are then separated and
made into an animation by means of a freeware program that is available online
from this link.
To my mind, the camera's best
feature is the storage of floppy disks. Its worst is the relatively low
resolution, which makes a printouts on anything larger than four by six paper
unadvisable. I am sure that, some time in the future, I will trade up to a
more advanced model of the Mavica. However, while I have this one it is
entirely possible to make decent pictures as demonstrated by some of the
images on this page, those of the Japanese garden and those in
the
picture gallery of New Orleans.
