Summary
I love the concept of the digital picture frame. It is a great non-intrusive way to share your photos with others or to display several photos in your home without taking up much space. Until recently, I have resisted purchasing a digital picture...
Strength
Outstanding picture quality at a good price.
Weakness
Poorly conceived features and settings... Inability to randomize display sequence... Bulky power supply.
Bottom Line
At $150, the Kodak EasyShare SV811 is a good value. It's features and options are unimpressive, but it's easy to use and has a vivid picture.
The Kodak is buying their Frames as OEM from other manufactures, with same processing chipset and same program (different graphic) and you end up paying at least 35% higher than exactly same product but with other brand names that you may not aware off...
Strength
Good Image quality, High speed photo reading
Weakness
you can get exactly samething without Kodak name for much less!
Bottom Line
Go for 4:3 standard screen and Buy other brands, for better use and prices
1st one purchased I was told to return to store by a Kodak 'tech' because the memory card would not show up. 2nd frame- loaded all photos from computer onto memory card (in Frame) and nothing but a time glass! 6 e-mails to Kodak- and no help- just tell...
Strength
nice picture IF you can get it to show them!!
Weakness
fails to read memory cards can not
load photos onto frame- terrible tech support
I won this in a prize drawing, it is an excellent frame! The picture quality is amazing! The menus are easy to use. Just plug and go. It even includes a nice remote...
Strength
Great Screen, everything you need is in the box EVEN THE USB CABLE!
Weakness
Screen is odd size, like many photo frames today. 128MB memory is insufficient.
I have had my frame for 3 months,I like everything about it.I just wanted to share that a 2 yr. old,threw this frame down on a hardwood floor 4 times during the course of a week--and it still works fine.Each time it happen,I thought oh no the frame is...
The frame worked fine once I got an AC adapter that worked. It took 28 days for Kodak to replace my faulty power supply. Their tech support was difficult to understand, and they did not seem knowledgeable about their own products. The frame was...
Strength
ease of loading pictures, resolution, remote control
Weakness
terrible customer service, no random display of photos
The Kodak SV811 is a poor design. The SV811 screen is 16:9 and the pixels are 800 x 480, which is NOT 16:9. That means the pixels are not square (maybe the screen was made for TV). The screen is re-digitizing the pictures to make them fit and this...
FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, THE FRAME HAS NOT PERFORMED AS EXPECTED. IT FLASHES A SCREEN WHEN IT ENCOUNTERS A FILE (PICTURE) THAT IT SAYS IN "BAD". THE SAME PICTURES WORK FINE ON ANOTHER BRAND FRAME. IT ALSO FREEZES ON PICTURES WITH NO APPARENT REASON...
Strength
GOOD QUALITY PICTURE WHEN THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS
Weakness
CONSTANT CARE WHEN ALL I WANT TO DO IS WATCH THE PICTURES
