Kodak EasyShare SV-710 7-Inch Digital Picture Frame

I love this thing! I bought it as a gift for my dad, and now everyone wants one! I bought a card for it (the one that Amazon suggests with it), and had no problem using the USB cable to copy photos from my computer onto the card. I love the slideshow feature - although I have 2 minor complaints:1. The slideshow doesn't have a random option (at least that I know of), so it only play in the order you put the photos onto the card. I handled this by mixing up the photos as I copied them onto the card.2. It doesn't adjust portrait photos that are saved in a landscape form. So, in order for the portrait photos to show correctly, you have to save it in portrait form on your computer before copying it to the card. If you don't, portrait photos show sideways.I'm not sure why some people complain about this frame. For what I was using it for (as a gift) - copying photos from my computer to a card using the USB cable, it worked perfectly! The photos look fabulous on this frame, and it's super simple to use! I will be buying more in the future!

the SV710 is my second kodak digital frame. i received the EX811 for Christmas last year (i'll get back to the WiFi issues). in any event, i purchased the SV710 for my mother, who is now residing in a nursing home. with limited space, i wanted her to have a display of family and friends. this little number is just the ticket. you can hang it on the wall, and it won't take up precious space on the dresser (don't leave the remote ~ take that home with you). i also purchased 3 1GB SD cards that i can easily swap out on my visits, and update her pictures when anyone sends me a new one. the display is crystal clear, even with scanned snaps at 300 dpi. i've even scanned crayon drawings from the little ones. it's so nice to have everything in one place. i also bought a card reader, and keep her folder on my desktop. just drop new pictures into the folder and update the SD card, swap it out with the one in the frame when you go to visit! it's so easy and you don't need to install the kodak software for the SD card to function. i love it!PS ~ the WiFi on my EX811 stopped functioning. it's all about the settings on your network. if you're having problems with connecting the frame to your network (i have verizon FIOS), you might want to check the settings on your router. set the speed to 'auto' i've had no problems since.

Kinda pixelated, but ok for the money. Unless I missed something, it has to be plugged in to work, which is a hastle (a battery option would be nice) but again, you get what you pay for.

I've owned this frame for about a week now. It isn't anything fancy, I just wanted a small digital frame for my desk at work. When Amazon made it available for under seventy-five dollars I just couldn't pass it up.The picture quality is great, and that's really the whole story for me. I bought a frame to show off my pictures, and it does that beautifully. It's as easy as loading up a memory card (SD in my case) with the pictures you want, sticking it in the frame, and turning the frame on. It isn't going to get much easier than that.It will play music with your slide show if you like. It will even play MP3's that you put in. I usually don't mess around with these things, but I occasionally will play a bit from my camcorder with sound though it and again, it works fine.What don't I like? I don't like the same thing that I don't like about many electronic products these days. Some of the controls are only on the remote. Some of them are on the back of the frame, but some are remote only...so don't lose it.Bottom line, it's a great little display for the money. I'm thinking about buying another one for my bedroom. I just haven't decided if I want to pony up the extra money for one that I can update and change pictures on remotely.

These 7" frames are a great high quality product at a great price. We looked at the 8" ones, but their significantly higher price tag and wireless capability made them less attractive for what we needed; a great Christmas gift for elderly parents and inlaws who already have everything and just want to see pictures of the extended family.These digital frames are even better than digital cameras/pictures because there's no fooling with syncing, hooking up USB cables, and all that. We just put all the photos we wanted our elders to have in a folder and copied them to SD cards, put the cards in the frames, got the frames ready to play the slideshow when the frames were plugged in and turned on, put everything back in the box and shipped them off. Done!This can be done with any of these digital frame models, of course, but for the price, the ease of use, the smaller size of this particular model, it worked out fabulously for us. Strongly recommended for any and all.oakndog

I bought a couple of these as Mother's Day presents when they were the Gold Box Deal of the Day. They were a great deal at around $70 each. Neither of the recipients were likely to ever buy a digital photo frame for themselves, but I was amazed at how quickly they had pictures displaying on the frame. One even got used at her parents' 60th anniversary party, and it was a great hit.This model doesn't have any internal memory, but that wasn't a problem as both recipients had memory cards laying around that were really too small for taking photos, but they held plenty of photos for display. The power timer function is great to help make sure that the frame is used without wasting power. The power on and power off times can be set to any desired time.
