    A digital camera that takes photo's but saves them to 1.44 MB floppy images instead of directly onto the SD-card.
    So you can take these floppy images and import them into a emulator (e.g. 86box), and edit your pictures with retro software.
    Or you can write them to real floppydisks for your retro rig.

    Also, let them save in 256 colors, or 16 colors.

            @loebas Sony had some of these in the early Mavica series:
            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Mavica

            I have one here that still works. 640x480 resolution, but later ones ahd up to 2 MP.

              @me_ @loebas seems all the replies are missing the keyword "images" here. He's talking about a modern camera that writes the images to a virtual floppy disk image file, fills it up, then creates a new virtual floppy and continues. I think they know about the Mavica style cameras, and are suggesting a modern emulator of that kind of system for easy import into retro emulated (or physical) systems.

                @wagesj45 @loebas Ah well, then I misinterpreted the sentence "Or you can write them to real floppydisks for your retro rig." I guess that was meant as "writing the images to floppy" instead of directly writing floppies.
