For the identity matrix $I$, the condition number of the matrix always equals 1.

My question is: are there any other matrices out there that have a condition number equal to 1, but are not the identity matrix or $\lambda I$ (for any scalar $\lambda$) ?
(because if $A$ is a matrix, then $cond(\lambda A) = cond(A)$)
