I recently purchase a Fujifilm W3 camera and wanted a large, portable viewing device for showing off my 3d photos. The display on the W3 is incredible, and I assumed this photo frame would be similar. Not so.
There are a few things that make the device unpleasant from the very start:
- First of all, the resolution is pretty low. You will notice right away that the images are quite pixelated.
- It only supports a specific format for 3d images. It is not difficult to use a freeware conversion tool to convert from the Fujifilm camera format to the side-by-side image format required, but it is inconvenient. This would not be a concern if you were moving images from another Aiptek device.
Neither of these issues were what turned me away from the device, however. For the relatively low cost I could have tolerated the low resolution, and although its a pain I could have gone through the process of converting all of my favorite images to work with this device. The real show stopper is that the 3d effect on this display is purely awful. This kind of display requires proper position to be effective, but on this particular device there is no so-called sweet spot. No matter how you position the display, you'll never get the entire image to look clear. The further away objects are in the picture, the blurrier they get. I'd be embarrassed to show anyone images off of this device, thus I returned it.
It may be that photos/videos taken with Aiptek devices look great, but those taken on the Fujifilm W3 certainly do not.

Hi,
I am in the 3D Autostereoscopic (3D without the glasses (3disnow.com)) business.
I have glasses free monitors from 7" to 42", and let me note, this is not new technology.
I have a Sharp RD3D that must be over 6 years old. Barrier technology goes back to Frederic Ives, (1902), "A novel stereogram". Journal of the Franklin Institute.
What makes this different is it's portability. I does not need a computer to run it.
Now here is my review;
The battery life could be better.
It runs well from the output brought over from the Aiptek Camera.
I have also generated output from the Fuji 3D W3 camera as well as computer generated side-by-side output.
The Fuji output needs to be converted to side by side using Stereo PhotoMaker or Stereo Movie Maker.
After conversion to avi or jpeg files, I also resize and rescale for use in the Aiptek frame.
There has been 1 glitch with the jpeg files as the Frame does not recognize all the files.
I have been in touch with Aiptek support on this issue and have sent them samples to review.
As far as the visual quality, it is not bad - Depending on the shot.
The price and portability are what make this very interesting.

2.5 Stars!
I purchased this to play videos recorded with my Fuji W3 camera. This display works but needs improvement. The screen on the W3 looks much better.
The Aiptek frame and camera use side by side 3D format which cuts the quality of the image in half. When displayed on this frame, Each eye gets 600x400? lines of resolution. That's low for a 8" screen. My HD video looks a bit blurry and dull but not horrible.
For best 3D effect the screen must be close to your face and centered. Looking from an off angle may produce a blurry or double image. Limited viewing distance and angles make this display a poor choice to use as a photo frame for public display. Placing the frame at eye level would be ideal.
I have my Fuji W3 Videos playing on the Frame, It seems to be prone to crashing and freezing while playing videos.
I converted the video with Fuji Software to Side by Side (for 3d TV) and Ran it through the mp4 encoder software (Media Converter 2.5) that came with the frame. High Quality 720P footage crashes the frame very frequenly. Low Quality 720P mp4 plays but randomly crashes. Longest I have had it running without crashing/freezing is about 12 hours. The Frame cant handle much 3D effect, too much effect and it shows double image.
I hope they can fix the crashing. I have not yet tried another SD card or called support.
AIPTEK, Please make it better!
1. Higher resolution Screen
2. Brighter/Clearer screen and barrier
3. Better Battery life.
4. MPO support
5. Fix the Crashing playing video.

Neat little viewer--great companion for the Aiptek 3D camera.
