Your oldest digital camera?

[Desmond]

I was just wondering how long digital cameras are lasting - a few of mine aren't extremely old compared to what might be out there
but I occasionally use my D50 though it's been a while since I used my Fuji F31fd which is still in good condition.
What old cameras are others still using?

D700 at age of 10.5 years and prox. 79,000 shutter releases.

Kind regards

Recently I bought one used [and sold it again] and was amused when someone said "They're not exactly known as low light cameras". How times have changed

D50 and plenty of old compact digital (mostly for nephews and nieces).
D50 and D40 for older nephew and niece.

D80 but haven't used in it 4 years.

a Canon G6, forgot I had it. Also a D300s that does get dragged out from time to time

I don't save my old cameras but I think this model was the first one I owned

Gave a CoolPix 990 to my nephew about a decade ago, he said it is still working. Probable the oldest in my house is a D70, no idea how long it has just been sitting next to a N8008 on a shelf.

While I don't use it anymore, I have a fully functional D70s. Back when 6mp. I had a Coolpix 990 as well, but it finally died.

Currently a D300 which I carry in the back seat of my Truck with a 70-300 Lens attached for those “oh crap why didn’t you bring your a Camera” times.

D200 from Dec. 2005. It's on loan to a friend who can't afford to buy a camera.

My very first digital camera was the Coolpix 900.....and I still have it, but have not used it in years. All my other ones have come-and-gone but I've hung on to that one for sentimental reasons, and not too long ago when I was cleaning out a closet had a happy reunion with it. The camera still lives in its special Nikon bag with its accessories....

D200; now just a paperweight.

My daughter has my son's D70—it still works but she doesn't use it. I did every time I visited (pre Covid, alas)

 

[vindex1963]

D40 and still works like new.

My first was a 1.0 mpx Sony Mavica recorded onto a 3” floppy - somewhere in the mid-late 90’s. Oldest still in the dry-cupboard? A D70 - not been fired up for a few years.

I still have a CoolPix 4300, but I've lost the charger so I don't know if it still works. That was my first digital camera (2002).

Another old one was the Sony that used a flopy disk for memory.

Does anyone still have one of those?

 

[Allan]

Oh, the PTO at our school aslo bought one of those for teachers to use. It was very easy for a teacher to check it out of the library and then insert his/her own disk.

Currently the oldest digital that I have is a Nikon D100 which I bought in 2002. Prior to that was a little point and shoot, can't recall if it was a Canon or Nikon only that we tried to get a second memory card as the one that came with the camera, 8mb "smart memory card" and to get a 32mb was over $200, think we ended up purchasing a 16mb card but it still was in the $150 neighborhood if I recall. This was probably mid 90's.
