Now you can display your digital photo collection in breathtakingly vivid colour - on an 8" Sony Digital Photo Frame. Choose from a variety of slide show options, and watch your photo memories come to life on this stylish frame. And when not displaying images, you can set it to one of its clock or calendar modes making it a great addition to any home or office.

Easy two-step operation

The S-Frame offers easy, convenient operation for all users. All you need do is follow a simple two-step procedure: First, shoot a photo and save to memory; second, insert the memory media into the S-Frame and enjoy your photos.

All the functions of the S-Frame can be operated by the compact remote control that provides maximum functionality with amazing ease of use. There is no complicated set-up or difficult operating procedures with the S-Frame.

One-button control
One-button control
The "View Mode" button, on both the remote control and main body, provides simple and convenient functionality. Simply pressing this one button lets you switch view options within each of the four display modes: Slideshow, Index, Still image, and Clock & calendar. For example, you can switch from "single," "multiimage," "clock," or "calendar" to "random" view in Slideshow mode, and from "analogue" to "digital" in Clock mode.

Multi-format card slot

The multi-format card slot supports a wide range of memory cards such as Memory Stick, Memory Stick Duo, SD, MMC, CompactFlash, Microdrive, and xDPicture Card. This enables a simple plug-and-play display of images shot on most digital cameras. M2, miniSD and MicroSD are compatible via an adaptor.

Automatic rotation of images
Automatic rotation of images
The photo frame automatically rotates images to their proper orientation. Images are also automatically rotated when the photo frame is set in either the portrait or landscape position.

True-to-life detail
True-to-life detail
Every nuance of the original image is faithfully reproduced on the S-Frame thanks to the high-quality 7" WVGA LCD. The 1.15 megapixel high-resolution (800x480) Clear Photo LCD renders tremendously detailed, realistic images that have vivid colors and contrast, with a real sense of naturalness.

Future camera milestone ready
Future camera milestone ready
The S-Frame can display images of up to 48 megapixels, which supports most compact and DSLR cameras, a significant design breakthrough realized by the foresight of Sony--a leader in the digital imaging industry.

Handles large data files
Handles large data files
The S-Frame can also handle data files up to 100MB in size. This means that image files that have been edited on a PC, which tends to increase file size, can be displayed smoothly.

Fast beyond expectations
Fast beyond expectations
What's even more impressive about the S-Frame is that it does all this quickly, all S-Frames offer fast image decoding, eliminating the frustration of waiting ages for images to load from memory cards or the internal memory. This speed is truly phenomenal and even a 12-megapixel photo can be displayed in just 1.9 seconds.

4:3 Aspect Ratio
4:3 Aspect Ratio
When displaying a 4:3 photo taken with your Digital Stills Camera, the photo can be displayed accurately without black bars on the side. When your D80 photo frame displays a 3:2 photo, the photo is displayed larger than it would be in 16;9 ratio, ensuring you don't get any black bars on your photos.

Create original photo albums
Create original photo albums
The S-Frame offers you an endless variety of ways to create your own unique digital photo albums for yourself and friends. The photo album function copies data in memory cards, automatically resizing photos to optimum image size (equivalent to 1.5 megapixels) and storing them in the album's large internal memory, ready for instant replay.

This frame's display is spot on in comparison to my calibrated computer display for viewing and manipulating photographs. The greys are grey, and near neutral colours are not distorted with over-saturation - yet purer colours have real punch. If you don't want to know more - then go and buy one and stop reading.

I do not care about video and sound features, I would rather have the money spent on the display itself. This is a "Digital Photo Frame" designed for 4:3 proportioned digital photos (ie most likely like yours are).

In comparison to 7 and 9 inch widescreen displays there is no contest for displaying normal shaped (uncropped) digital pics. The D80 will even show a physically larger image using more pixels than the 9 inch 800:480 pixel widescreen. I did the maths.. and checked them out... Its good for 35mm film (3:2) scans to, or DSLR pictures of the same proportion, giving only small 6mm black bars top and bottom (without cropping).

All Sony frames (I tried 3 in a store) will display standard jpegs from cameras or those edited in software such as photoshop or paintshop pro and saved as jpegs (not project files etc, I use Photoshop and Paintshop pro, I can't vouch for very old versions of these products, or other packages. If your edits lose the EXIF data it only affects one view mode (of many) or pop-up picture data when you ask for it - which shows the date and time the picture was taken - the image is fine. My edited camera photos are fine. My scans don't have this information in the first place but still display.

All Sony frames that I tried/checked do not allow colour or contrast adjustment. It would be nice if you could adjust contrast, saturation and RGB like in a good camera in the frame's old age. That's a suggestion for all manufacturers (all frames give more or less functionality in this area that I looked at)

This is a really neat, eye-catching product which does exactly what it should do, show-off digital images accurately and extremely well.

Ps - Amazon did well - delivery was to within 1 hr of the estimate.

Bought this for my 77 year old Mum so ease of use and good display were my priorities. My PC recognised it immediately, as if an external drive, and using XP creating a folder then dragging and dropping photos was a cinch. Wondered if the frame would need photos in the root directory but it was fine. The display is gorgeous - most of my photos taken with my Nokia N95 and look crisp and colourful. Some on an old digital camera, also good. Even ones from my Nokia 6600 are viewable if a bit grainy from the increase in size.

The manual appears to be written in English rather than translated, and is well-indexed. Mum was quite happy to read it. To be honest, I could have got the frame set up and photos on it without even reading the manual, it was that straightforward.

I stored nearly 200 images on the internal memory.

The remote control is easy to use and some of the icons are self-explanatory but the manual covers these right at the beginning anyway. It takes a standard calculator battery.

Only gripes - the auto-orientation doesn't work on my photos, and although you can manually set it for a still image, this doesn't seem to work in random mode nor retain the change. The answer to this is edit it first on your PC! Secondly, no mini-USB cable is supplied, so you might want to buy one if you can't pinch one from something else (in my case, my 3G modem). Finally, I was surprised to read in the manual's advice, that memory cards should be formatted on your digital camera, not in your PC, otherwise they might not work. I haven't tried it with a memory card so I can't comment, but not sure where this leaves micro-SD cards or similar from one's phone. Not everyone has a digital camera, especially with phone cameras now being so good.

Small gripes and certainly nothing that would prevent me giving this 5 stars. I want one myself!

Excellent 8 Feb 2009
This digital photoframe is easy to use and packed with features. Onboard memory allowed me to load and display pictures in minutes. Frame recognised by my computer (XP) as soon as it was plugged in. Display is vibrant and crisp - the best I have seen. Have subsequently tried out CF card and SD card and both work great.

Very smart and clear design. My only problem is that it does not accept memory sticks - you have to convert onto a memory card.
