Then there are the Sony cameras that use floppy disks as the recording
media. 
They are inexpensive, and it is easy to carry as many as you need. Some
models now use a recordable CD that can store an incredible number of
pictures. The camera has all the bells and whistles you could ever want.

Mine takes great pictures, as many of you have seen.
