While digital frames are no longer the impressive novelty that they once were, they’re still a fantastic way to display your photos without having to deal with printing and framing. The slideshow functionality is a nice bonus too, allowing you to keep the pictures fresh every time you walk by.
Sony will be launching a new group of S-Frames in September which range from 7 inches up to 10 inches. They offer on-screen icons and simple functionality to make them easier to use and Sony promises crystal clear picture quality thanks to high-resolution LED backlit LCD screens. What’s more is the new models can also play back both AVCHD and MP4 video files. They even support JPEG and Alpha’s RAW file formats.
All models include 2GB of internal memory, and a timer function that turns the frame on and off for you so you don’t have to waste energy when you’re not at home. They’re also compatible with Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo cards, SD/SDHC/SDXC cards, and USB thumb drives.
