Simple, economical for photo displays

As others have mentioned, ours did not come with a manual. However I found the manual in just a couple of minutes on the manufacturer's web site and printed it. We were able to get it to read from every memory card the relatives had, which included multimedia card, Sony memory stick, an XD card, and a flash memory card. The resolution is not great, but that is what allows it to hold a lot of photos and be less expensive than most digital frames.

I also liked this one because it was so simple (the company makes more advanced models, but some start up with a menu). If you ignore the extra buttons on this one, it just starts up playing a slide show and continuously rotates through all the pics on the memory card. This makes it a perfect gift for a non-tech person to have a lot of photos to look at. (you just have to take their card to a computer and load more pics on it when you want to add pics). Mine came with other cables, but we haven't used them.

Pictures look ok, but no USB and no TV out!

The description and the box says it has a USB 2.0 connection for fast transfer with included cable and a video out for TV viewing with cable. However, it has none of these connections nor cables! Our camera uses a different memory card (smartmedia) not supported by this product, so we have to figure out another way to get the photos from our computer onto the SD memory card supported by this product. If these interfaces are not required (and we probably won't need them once we figure a way to get photos onto the card), then the frame is a good way to showcase your digital photo collection.

doesn't work at all

We received this as a gift. It worked ONLY the first time I used it. It has nothing to do with picture quality or size either. I have a Canon EOS Rebel 6.1 SRR camera (very large files). I took some pictures, and it worked, although image quality was quite poor. Of course, you won't really want to take some photos to use. You'll want to BUY ANOTHER MEMORY CARD, further expense, and copy some good photos to it for use in the digital frame. I did this and now it won't read any cards at all. I even reformated one of my memory cards, took new photos and inserted the card. Still won't read them. Don't waste your money. I'm asking for the receipt so that I can return it to the store. By the way, almost NEVER write really bad reviews, but this product is truly awful.
