Comments about EDGE Tech 5.6 in Digital Picture Frame with MP3 Player:
I have been evaluating AND BUYING digital photo frames for weeks. I was looking for a 5.6 inch or 7.0 inch model that cost $150 or less. There's a lot of no-name models on the market, and the one thing that none of them seemed to do right was A) photo scaling and B) slideshow transition selection.
For A, all these smaller models (with the stupid widescreen display) insisted on either overscaling the photo to the 16:9 display, or underscaling it to something less than 4:3. So people either look fat or skinny, never just right. Why they would screw this up I have no idea -- 99% of the digital photos in the world are in 4:3 aspect ratio, and no thanks I'm not about to crop hundreds of photos.
For B, all these smaller models only offered random transitions. That is, they would wipe left, then wipe up, then do a venetian blind effect, et cetera. You can't tell it to use a specific transition.
THIS MODEL DOES BOTH RIGHT! Standard 4:3 photos are not distorted by the widescreen display, and I can choose a specific transition! Even better, it has the simple "crossfade" transition that nobody else seems to have, at least not at this price point.
The display is OK, I've seen worse. It doesn't randomize the photos, but I can fix that by renaming them. In short, I've finally found the DPF for me!
