What’s a floppy disk camera?

An old digital camera that used pc disks to store images.

Surprised these things still exist

Probably just old ones that never broke. They were pretty sturdy and basic. I think they used AA batteries.

That's like super cool! Must've been a pain carrying around a bunch of floppy disks if you wanted to travel with it though

Well back in time it was Film camera ,change roll can be anoying and a wrong shoot is wrong forever . A digital camera with flash media ,ultra expensive for the era even a 2mb one . Plus you need a dedicated software for copy the picture with a very slow serial port . Removable flash storage even more expensive . Floppy are dirt cheap . And per floppy it’s around 5~6 picture (or 15 second of video )
