Kodak EasyShare SV-710 7-Inch Digital Picture Frame

Bought this digital photo frame for my dad for Father's Day. He was thrilled. It's easy to use and understand, even for someone with limited computer/electronics experience. My dad loved the way the slide show would open each photo in a different way and the fact that music could be downloaded to accompany the pictures. The resolution was good as well.

The screen is a little small (but I'm used to seeing a 10" screen my boss has in my workplace), but this one is affordable - especially purchased on Amazon rather than retail.

I'm sure you can get better products for more money, but this is a good value for a basic digital frame!

I liked everything about this frame except it has no method to randomly display your pictures. It displays them in the order you added them to the device - so if you have hundreds of pictures, you will always see the same pictures in the same sequence at start-up. This to me is a huge oversight and flaw - I would think that random would be the default display method for any digital picture frame.

Aside from that the picture frame is great. The picture quality is outstanding and the interface is fairly easy to use.

Everyone who stops in my office immediately notices my Kodak picture frame - it's awesome. I haven't even taken the time to figure out the features, but I found it was easy to set up -- I just plugged in the card, turned it on, and away it went. So easy! The one ever-so-small annoyance is that it doesn't scale the pictures to fit the frame and so sometimes you'll find some pictures cut off a bit, but if you take the time to adjust them, then all is good.

Good-looking frame, but more importantly, good-looking pictures in the frame. Photos displayed vertically are much smaller than full-frame. Fairly easy to load from a PC, but not easy to tell how mcuh space is left in frame memory. Kodak-supplied software does not help manage content of frame.

I got this item shipped to me today. I've been playing with this for a while now and everything works as expected. The picture quality is amazing, wifi set up was a breeze and the tiny remote, which is all you need to operate this, is extremely handy. I've so far tested the basic functionality in this, and I'm very happy. Highly recommended!

Update: It looks like I was too hasty in writing a review. Apparently, my frame is not able to recognize computers connected to the network. I called the support folks at Kodak and they were pathetic - one of 'em told me WMP 11 works only with certain routers!!
