    3" CD-R's on a 50 Pack spindle = $39.75

    5" CD-R's (74 min)on a 50 Pack Spindle = $18.00

    Prices obtained on cdroutlet.com

    Now which one is cheaper???? Even if the 5 inchers costed more, it would STILL be cheaper!

    185 MB x 50 = 9,250 MB

    650 MB x 50 = 32,500 MB

  2. Re:OK, the concept is really cool... by drinkypoo · · Score: 1 · on CD-R In A Digital Camera: The Ueber-Mavica?

    Except that those CD-R are Sony specifics, so I doubt they'll be as cheap as 1$ a piece.

    While it is possible that the device will use CD-R media "branded" by sony in some way, 77mm CD-R media is not unusual. You can pick it up from a number of places, including CDR Outlet (linked from this comment earlier).

    Right now, that media is pretty pricy, from $1-$3 per piece of media, but as more uses for it develop, I expect it will eventually become somewhat cheaper (No more than US$0.25) than the full-size CD-R media.

    While Sony could easily come up with a reason to use "special" 77mm CD-R media, I doubt they will. It would just mean they'd sell less cameras. Anyone can find a camera with more functionality than the mavica (except for the CD-R support), and Sony would be smartest not to push them.

    Plus, 156 MB of storage doesn't mean you can fit as much : since it writes one pic at a time, it must be a multi-session disc... which means huge quantities of wasted space.

    This is discussed in the article on This Page. It writes in packet style (like a CD-R drive would) so you don't need to finalize between sessions. It looks like you get about 120mb worth of images on one 77mm CD-R.
