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. Sony DPF-D70 Highlights 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..

Enhance your photo enjoyment effortlessly
Full-function remote control 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 are no complicated set-up or difficult operating procedures with the S-Frame.
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," "multi-image," "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 xD-Picture 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 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 Every nuance of the original image is faithfully reproduced on the S-Frame thanks to the high-quality WVGA LCD. The 1.15 megapixel high-definition Clear Photo LCD renders tremendously detailed, realistic images that have vivid colors and contrast, and a sense of naturalness so real that you feel you could reach into the photo and touch what you see. Fit to screen, or full image--it's your choice The S-Frame offers both fit-to-screen and full-image modes. In fit-to-screen mode, the aspect ratio of the image is adjusted so that the image fills the entire screen. In full-image mode, the image is displayed in the original horizontal-to-vertical ratio, surrounded by margins on all four sides. The DPF-D70 offers a 16:9 aspect ratio. 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 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. Room for all your memories The large internal memory offers room to store hundreds of your most precious memories. The DPFD70 has a 256MB internal memory that holds up to 500 images. The S-Frame enables you to save the data saved in its internal memory to other memory cards. Fast beyond expectations What's even more impressive about the S-Frame is that it does all this quickly, without the frustration of waiting ages for images to load. All S-Frames offer fast image decoding, eliminating the frustration of waiting ages for images to load from memory cards or the internal memory. On models equipped with a BIONZ processor, this speed is truly phenomenal and even a 12-megapixel photo taken on a Cyber-shot W200 can be displayed in just 1.7 seconds. (For the D70 without BIONZ, images are displayed in 1.9 seconds.) 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. The gift that keeps on giving One of the greatest joys you can give someone is a never-fading memory of a shared experience, or one that they missed. The S-Frame makes a perfect time capsule of such treasured moments. Simply load one with memories, repack it and send it to friends or family. All the receiver has to do is take the S-Frame out of the box and turn it on, and a pre-programmed slideshow will start automatically. The joy of giving was never easier.

Customer Reviews Sony DPF-D70 7-inch Digital Photo FrameFrom Sony

Great quality - big feature missing! I was upgrading from a much cheaper unit as a valentine day present for my wife Stupid me! I assumed that the Sony would work similar to the cheaper unit. So, I popped for a 16GB SDHC card and copied my digital library of family pics to another drive. I resized the images since the Sony only handles about 800/600 resolution. I resized all 9,585 files in 156 folders and then loaded them on the SDHC card. Imagine my surprise after a whole days work to find that there is no way to select a single folder and view only those pics. Instead, it loads all 9,585 files into one big buffer based on file name and that is what you are stuck with. This seems like a huge disadvantage to me. Also, when I try to use the clock / pic view mode - the clock does not have the correct time. If I view clock only - it does. Has anyone else had this problem??? Picture quality is excellent. I just wish access to specific albums/directories was as well.
Good Digital Photo Frame We bought this digital photo frame as a birthday present for my wife's father and it does exactly what we wanted it to do. I didn't opt for WiFi features because I loaded all of the pictures directly off of my computer, so when he opens it on his birthday, all he'll have to do is plug it in and turn it on. Loading the pictures from my computer was pretty easy, although the instructions were a bit confusing. I generally go from step 1 to step "n," and it wasn't until the end when I saw a "tip," where I learned something that required me to essentially delete all of the images I'd loaded onto the frame and start over. It would have been nice to have had the "tip" up-front. Otherwise, no complaints. It does exactly what it's supposed to do, the pictures look great, and the frame looks nice. No complaints.
Nice Picture - Poor Features I loaded over 2000 pictures on the frame and gave it to my mother for Christmas. She likes to sit and go through them when she has a couple of minutes at mealtime. The problem is every time the frame shuts off you go back to the beginning. I called Sony tech support and they said that there were no other options. Also, the frame has a display option that includes a date and time. You set the time and if you call up the digital clock it displays correctly, if you change to an analog clock option, the time is off by 4 and 1/2 days. Sony tech support said they knew about the problem and could fix it if I sent it in. I sent it back. I found a much cheaper model with a comparable display, and many more display options.
