Really Disappointed With This Frame July 19, 2010 JerzeyBird The visual quality of the photographs when viewed thru this frame are really beautiful, and I expected as much given that I have a View Sonic computer monitor. However, you can only EITHER display photos in portrait view OR landscape view if you want photos to run a slideshow and not have half of them laying on their side. You can stop the slideshow and rotate a photo, but it will not be saved in the rotated view and will go back to its original view.

br /I purchased this frame to give to my sister with her wedding photos as they wanted to run their photos in a slideshow. About 1/3 of my shots were shot in portrait view, 2/3 in landscape view. I have pulled out about half my hair experimenting with cropping and resizing my portrait view photos so that they can be read by the frame as a landscape dimension, but the frame cannot deal with that at all, and there's no way to predict how the frame will deal with a crop or resize until it is loaded into the frame. My computer monitor can certainly deal with displaying a photo in any view, why can't this? In fact, the frame will manually rotate a photo by making an intelligent crop, but you can't save it like that. If you recrop the photo in the very same way the frame did and load it back into the frame, it treats the photo like a close up [even if you size to accommodate the lost pixels]!! It's sheer crazy making. I am now needing to decide if some of my favorite shots stay out of the frame or if I return it and try something else.

br /If somebody has any suggestions, I'd be appreciative

br /UPDATE: July 20, 2010
br /
br /Regarding the problem with vertical/portrait view shots, I found that if I cropped some and rotated them 90 degrees clockwise, that the frame would load them properly but only with the 3:4 view. So this squeezed the horizontal/landscape view shots a bit, but an acceptable compromise.
br /
br /However, the slideshow craziness is not acceptable. You can set a "shuffle" option to avoid the frame running from the very beginning of the photo set each time, but after sitting with 150 pictures for over 20 minutes, the frame would run some of the same shots multiple times and never get to others. If I then go thru the menu to see the photos one at a time by choosing a shot from the thumbnails and then clicking to forward thru them, sometimes the frame will just start a slideshow again, taking me far afieild from the photo I was next planning to look at....really nuts and completely annoying.
br /
br /A commenter in the digital frame forum here on Amazon stated something very true, that all frames seem to have two fundatmental flaws; dealing with shots on the verticle, and lousy slideshow performance. This frame has big problems on both those points. It also tends to caste a bit too much of a warm temperature [yellow] on shots that have a certain amount of gold light in them.
a nice digital frame, until it stopped working July 14, 2010 Rich (Austin, TX USA) I would really have liked to give this digital photo frame a better review.
br /
br /It came highly recommended by previous Amazon purchasers, and we liked the display. We bought one for ourselves, and soon afterwards bought four others for relatives. After three weeks, ours stopped working. It no longer responded to inputs (buttons or remote), froze at random intervals (until restarted), and in short made us hope that our relatives had enjoyed longer useful lives from theirs than we had had from ours.
br /
br /I have no idea how typical our experience was. We got most of our money back from Amazon, and are re-evaluating our options for digital frames. If you get this one, enjoy it; watch it carefully; and be prepared to send it back to Amazon at the first sign of problems.
Great Gifts July 10, 2010 SD These were bought for gifts. They look great and have a good size screen. They are fairly easy to load pictures onto from a computer. A bit slow setting them up initially. The people who received them were very happy and found them easy to use (one quite elderly - 90, also).

Large size - easy to setup and use. The remote is a little difficult to use - sometimes you have to push the buttons more than once.
