Re: OT : Dig Photo Frame recommend ?

["Simon Coates" <simon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gareth,

Stay clear of the very cheap ones - I got some and sent them back.  The
Cib=
ox one was especially bad - the aspect scaling was way off and the screen
w=
as dull and blurry.

I can recommend the Kodak frames for that sort of money.  Got some as
prese=
nts back in summer - PC World/Currys had them on offer for =A369.99 for a
7=
" widescreen.  Nice crisp screen, not too grainy close up  Some useful
feat=
ures - eg timer for on/off, backlight level adjust, mp3 and mp4, although
f=
rame is basic black plastic.
You should be able to get a 7" for =A370.

BTW If you do get one I found pics looked best if you resize and crop to
48=
0 x 270 and increase colour saturation around 10-20% and then sharpen.

Regards

Simon
