Anyone get a digital photo frame or already have one?

18 years ago

My DD and DIL bought me a Kodak Easy Share S510 digital photo frame for Christmas and I LOVE this thing! When they first came out, I really didn't think I'd ever want one, but I've loaded it up with pictures that I've taken over the past 5-6 years and am going to take it to work for my desk. You can leave just one picture up at a time or have it in slide show format with the duration anywhere from 3 seconds to an hour per picture.

What a great gift!!

I was very excited to get DH one for his office...but he wasn't so thrilled. That's okay; we're taking it back and he's getting a "portable game cleaning station" from Cabela's! LOL

Maybe I'll get a digital photo frame for my birthday!

Haven't really worked with IT, YET

Question, from your camera and SAVE it in the frame?

well one thing you could do is get a connector adapter switch that allows you to add that extra monitor to your existing pc (dual monitor set up), then you could set up that monitor to simply play a slide show that you have set up on your pc like you can do in the screensaver settings or use a special program to do it. Seems like an option that would possibly work and not be too expensive. You can get a USB 2.0 to VGA adapter that would allow you to simply use one of your USB ports to plug it into, or get a little usb hub to sit on your desktop would be even easier, but this should do what you want. Here is a link to one type of adapter. IF you do a google search for "USB to VGA" adapter you will find many, now if you your monitor has a DVI instead of VGA connection you would need USB to DVI adaptor, most monitors if they have DVI also have VGA connections, but if it is older it may only have VGA. here is the link to one on newegg so you can look at the specs and cost and comments. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815118301 here is a good article about this http://www.tomshardware.com/2005/06/08/add_a_monitor_using_usb/ you know some of the new pc and laptops come with more than one monitor plug in on them if that happens to be the case then all you need to do is simply plug that monitor right into your pc in the other open connection. this one is at a better price point http://www.buyextras.com/betusb20tosv.html?gclid=CPG59_TyspICFQw_gQodpWKxQQ Here is a link that might be useful: adapter

Most are powered only by an AC adapter, but I've heard there are a few that also have battery power,. Check the specs on any frame you are interested in: many of them can handle 100-240V AC input, which means you would not need to buy a special transformer to make it work in England, just a couple dollar adapter plug to allow the U.S.-style plug to mate with a British receptacle. (See the link below for a kit with several adapters; this would handle whatever you encountered in England.) The most important thing to me is the screen resolution: some of the less expensive ones have pretty low resolution and the pictures look grainy. If it were me, I'd pick one with the best resolution I could afford, and just get a plug adapter. Here is a link that might be useful: Plug adapter kit

Actually , that's a good idea, but I was thinking she could put it in her office ( they both work in same place) and I'm sure they already have all that other stuff. They both make a lot of money. Can you even get a 19 inch LCD or plasma tv for that little?

Glenda - mine doesn't have a way to save the pictures to the frame - you insert a memory card that you load with pictures and it reads the pictures from the memory card. I haven't really looked at any of these so I'm not sure if some of the others have a built in hard drive where you can download pictures to the frame or not.

Hope this helps.

I bought two as gifts. One for my DS #1 and one for DS #3's girlfriend. DS loves his and has it sitting on the kitchen counter, but plans to take it to his office after the holidays. DIL loves it and wants to keep it at home, LOL. His has an internal memory. So you put the memory stick in and it loads to the frame. The one I got for the girlfriend doesn't have an internal memory. So the card has to stay in the frame.

They are really cool!

I bought Bob one for Christmas. I had already loaded it with grand kids and doggie pictures via a memory stick before giving it to him. He loves it.

We bought all the kids a keychain one. I sat one night for HOURS finding all the pics (up to 64 each!) that I wanted to put on them, and then loading them. We had them open that gift at the same time....it was so much fun to watch them looking through their pics. There were pics anywhere from birth to last week on them.

I got one for my DH for Christmas, and I got one for my DS for his birthday. As I said, we haven't celebrated our holidays yet, so they don't know yet, but I think that they will both love them. I am getting my dd one for her birthday in June. I think that they are very nice. They will all love them.

We bought one for the motorhome last April. We love it. Bought 3 of them for gifts for Christmas. Actually... they were on back order and weren't supposed to be in until after Christmas. We had to go buy something else for gifts then got a call to say they were in. Decided to give them next year and then DH kept one for us for the house. You can put music on the one for the house. How cool.
