The 2000 Mavica MVC-CD1000 was the first Mavica digital camera from Sony to use optical CD-R discs, where earlier models had used 3.5" floppies. While floppies made it simple to move images onto a computer, with the maximum 1600×1200 resolution of the CD1000, a floppy would only hold about four images. The mini CD format allowed 156 MB to be stored, although it made the camera rather large and oddly-shaped. (The later and similar-in-specs Mavica FD97 added a Memory Stick option for the same reason.)
