Digital Frames
Digital picture frames are great gifts for the person you love and you will be amazed at just how far they have come since they were first introduced.
Digital frames are a great Christmas gift for anyone on your Christmas list. Back in the 1950s the concept of television sets that hung the wall was futuristic. Today, it is the norm. Digital frames are based on the same technology as these television sets and they have come so far that you can actually have one that changes pictures everyday simply by e-mailing the picture from across the world.
Digital frames come in a variety of different sizes as well. You can purchase one that is as large as a television set that hangs on your wall and it is a unique experience to see your family pictures cycle through at the interval you set, making it a great way to decorate your home, especially if you have limited wall space. Digital frames also come in key chains, picture albums, and a variety of sized picture frames that sit on your desk.
When you are considering purchasing a digital frame to give as a gift for Christmas, look at the following features to make sure you are getting the best quality frame for the money you plan on spending:
- Networking – make sure the frame can accept a memory card or chip so that you can update the photos in your digital frame whenever you want to. Some frames can be hooked up to the Internet or your phone line and can accept pictures simply by being sent to them. However, keep in mind that you do have to know how to upload the pictures from the Internet photo site that the pictures are uploaded to.
- Number of images – some digital frames has an internal memory card that can only hold a set number of images. Make sure you know how much the frame holds and whether or not it can take a memory card for extra capacity storage.
- Portability – do you want a frame that hangs on the wall or that can be placed on a desk? Wall digital frames require electricity while desk frames use batteries.
- User options – make sure the frame comes with a user option to set the way the digital frame displays your photos regarding length of time the image is displayed, fade between the image, and a power on and off option.
- Style – digital frames come in a wide variety of styles so that they work well with any décor in your home or office.
- Software upgrades – make sure that the frame can have its software upgraded to keep up with the most current technology available.
