Frame of the Future

Advantages: Great photo quality, effecient, can hold 500 pictures
Disadvantages: never taken 500 photos, hassle with memory card, easily forgotten

...Me and my mum saw our doctor with a digital frame in her office and we thought that was such a clever device we just had to get one. In a world where everything is pretty much digital it seemed logical to show our photos from our digital camera on this rather than leaving them on the computer. ***The Product*** It has a 7inch LCD frame which is photo quality. It will rotate your picture in the frame for correct viewing of landscape and portrait positions. The multi-card slot accepts Memory Stick, Memory Stick Duo, SD, MMC, CompactFlash, MicroDrive or xD media. Pictures from your computer can be easily transfered to the frame's memory with no software needed. The internal memory is 256MB which can hold up to 500 pictures to display on your frame. You can choose whether you wish to use the slideshow mode to show your photos or choose...

Review of Sony DPF-D70 - Digital photo frame - flash 256 MB - 7"

A Sony Digital Photo Frame Review

Advantages: Good if you have a lot of pictures on your computer.
Disadvantages: There is always something moving in the corner of your eye.

...I bought this digital photo frame for my eldest daughter as the sales assisstant in the shop said it is ideal for people with a lot of pictures and as she is leaving school soon she will have a lot of photos lying on the computer. This gift is ideal for people is their computer it full up with holiday pictures etc. It is a regular photo frame size, which is ideal. The picture quality is fantastic, however this depends on the quality of the camera you took the photo on in the first place. It is good that you can change the picture often by uploading new photos onto it (instructions make this very easy). You can choose which pictures you wish to view and how the transition of the photos occurs. The only down side is that if the photo is small then it doesn't stretch to the edges of the frame....

Review of Sony DPF-V900 - Digital photo frame - flash 512 MB - 9"

SONY - THE NAME FOR FRAME ACCLAIM

Advantages: Crisp images, easy to use, looks lovely, large screen
Disadvantages: No USB Cable supplied - so no way of getting photographs onto the frame without buying one

...My Mum, bless her, can?t get her head around viewing photographs on a computer monitor, she is of the generation that like their pictures in albums or in a frame, to be enjoyed at her leisure, preferably in a comfy chair, and without the need for constant mouse clicking. Between the family members with digital cameras we have a fair number of digital photographs, numbering into the thousands in fact, but not having a limitless supply of ink and photo paper printing them off would be immensely costly, as well as time consuming. Clearly something had to be done to open up these many photographs to Mum, which is how I found myself toying with the idea of a digital photo frame for Mothers Day. The brief was to find one that was simple to operate, aesthetically pleasing and with enough storage to hold as many photographs as we could throw...

Review of Sony DPF-V900 - Digital photo frame - flash 512 MB - 9"

Pixelar digital frames 7" and 15"

Advantages: ease of use ,picture quality
Disadvantages: 7" couldnt wall hang...no slots

...i actually bought the 7" PWCL7 and PBCL15 FRAMES...little one for a friend as xmas present,and the big one for me..;-). The quality of the 7" one when i started it up with an sd card out of my camera was surprisingly good for a little frame.Worked straight from plugging in really...also linked to pc and could download from pc via usb lead provided.Could orient the frame in portrait and lansdcape...but would need to orient the pics too...did via the remote control.picture bright and colour good. The 15" one was lovely,with stunning picture quality..seems to have same software in it as 7"-handy as i bought two.This one can go on a wall using the screw recesses in back..and thoughtfully has a longer lead power supply for the wall hanging option... Overall i am a happy chappy... (**)...

Review of Pixelar Digital Photo Frame

Make your own picture frames

Advantages: Cheaper than having frames made; Fun to use
Disadvantages: Expensive initially

...stockists. It is : frameco@frameco.com.au I used it in conjunction with an inexpensive picture frame clamp. Frameco make their own, which is very expensive. You can use it without a clamp, very easily. The PushMaster tool cost £39 apparently, which is a big outlay if you are only going to make one or two frames. However, if you are like me, you will want to use this frequently and start making frames for friends and family. The tool is also useful for holding mitre joints on any piece of woodwork....

Review of Push Master Picture Framing Tool

Pixelar 7 inch white digital photo frame

Advantages: nice looking,ease of use,multifunctional,excellent picture quality-with music at same time
Disadvantages: no wall hanging slots

...I bought this pwcl7 white digital photo frame from the pixelar website, It came quickly-2 dys - and was well packaged, I have bought a 5.6" one and another 7" elsewhere over last 18 months but i have to say i was impressed by the quaolity and functions available on this one.the picture quality was very good and it was very easy to use, with good brightness and contrast range.The remote also had a mode function which enabled you to change from 16:9 to 4:3 ratio,,handy as most of my pictures are 4:3. it wasnt the cheapest..like my other 7" i bought,but it certainly was a goodd money buy. downsides.well i really wanted a black one but i found that this fits just about anywhere,currently on my office desk.Only criticism if i am being fair is that you cant wall hang it,but it may llook a bit daf that small on a wall. Remote easy to use...

Review of Pixelar Digital Photo Frame

Picture this!

Advantages: See review, too many to list!
Disadvantages: None for me but the Sony branding may put some off!

...In days gone by if you wanted to display your favourite photos then you had two choices, you either placed all the photos in big clumsy albums which you could pass round to visitors to browse through in turn or you could have dozens of photo frames all around your living room making the place look very, very cluttered. These days with digital cameras we all have even more images to display and now thankfully we also have a new way to display them. The digital photo frame has been around for a while now but they are coming down in price and improving in quality so much so that they are soon going to be the thing no house can be without. If you are going to go for a digital photo frame then you will want to look out for a few things, you will obviously want one that looks good, you will want one that can take a large memory card...

Review of Sony DPF-V700 - Digital photo frame - flash 512 MB - 7"

~*~*~You've been framed~*~*~

Advantages: great quality finish, excellent picture quality an overall stylish product
Disadvantages: quite expensive

...I already have a digital photo frame and don't really need another! Thing is I have this problem?I se something and want it. I was browsing Play.com the other night (I know huge mistake) and decided that it would be rather good to order a few unnecessary but luxurious gifts with my larger than normal pay packet. The Philips frame seemed like a good buy at the time, it still is although my bank balance does not agree. APPEARANCE --------------------- The frame is very stylish and it does look like a 'normal' picture frame. It looks very good on a shelf and to the 'untrained' eye would look like any normal frame. In fact my Kodak frame looks quite artificial but this looks like a very normal, bog standard but stylish frame. Without wanting to sound 'stuck up' this frame does look stylish and 'refined' it does look like an expensive...

Review of Philips 9FF2CWO - Digital photo frame - 9"

Picture It!

Advantages: Regular change of picture, Plays audio and video
Disadvantages: Style may not be to everyones taste

...I have mixed feelings about digital photo frames. My mum bought this Kodak Digital Photo Frame as part of a gift for her Partner as he is in to his gadgets etc and this was new out at the time. However, on first impressions I thought it looked quite odd and maybe a little tacky. However, my opinion has slightly changed. I think the advantage of having a digital photo frame such as this one made by Kodak is that you can regularly change the picture you are viewing. This is ideal if you have a special occasion or fancy a change. One day you could have a picture of your Gran and the next a picture of you and your partner. The photo frame is also easy to use and comes with an easy to read instruction manual in case you do get stuck. Another benefit is that you can set your photo frame so that it constantly rotates the pictures you are...

Review of Kodak EASYSHARE EX-811 Digital Picture Frame

Display your best pictures with style.

Advantages: clock, power saving presets, stability, connectivity options
Disadvantages: none

.... In the beginning of this review I need to say that before my girlfriend's brother bought it I was not a big fan of these frames. Saw them hundred times in shops, adverts and so on and can not explain why, but was not interested. Once I saw how it works, how simple it is and what it does I have completely changed my mind. The biggest difference between ordinary and digital frame is in my opinion simplicity. It may sound weird but yes-simplicity. In normal frame you can not put lets say hundred pictures and set them to change every 10 seconds. It is not possible to see anything when light is off. Philips 7FF2FPA does it all and allows you even to save money. When you buy normal frame or frames it cost, to place something in - means to print a picture from PC or printing shop it costs. Once you have digital frame all you need to do...
