The Mavica FD5 and the Mavica FD7, introduced together in 1997, were the first truly digital models in the Mavica series from Sony. The more expensive FD7 offered an autofocus f/1.8–2.9 zoom lens, with 10x range having a 35mm equivalent of 40–400mm.
The FD7 uses a sensor intended for television cameras, recording two interlaced fields. These images were downsampled to 640×480 pixel JPEGs and saved to standard 3.5" computer floppy disks. In "standard" quality a floppy can hold up to 40 images; in "fine" mode, up to 20. Anticipating a feature that became ubiquitous in later digital cameras, "picture effects" including pastel, sepia, and B&W modes may be selected.
A proprietary NP-F530 lithium battery pack provides 7.2-volt power.
