This review is from: Digital Foci Image Moments 8 Digital Picture Frame (IMT-083) (Electronics)

I purchased this product for my parents and works. While a bigger screen size could be better for elderly, photos look excellent (800 X 600 resolution) and videos and music too. The ability of the camera to show digital media (photos, movies taken directly from a digital camera and the music mp3 files) immediately after plug-in a new external card is superb, u don't even need to turn-off the frame. So far the frame has performed very well and I don't see any issue with the frame. Package comes with three mats (black, gray and cream (off-white).
The power supply works with 120 - 240 Volts.

After doing a great deal of research into the digital photo frames in the 8" to 11" category, I selected this 8" Digital Foci frame to be the one to purchase. It was a bit more than I had wanted to spend but after reviewing all of the features that it has (more internal memory with 145MB, random slideshow option, interchangeable mats that are provided, ability to sort photos in separate folders for viewing, support for virtually all memory devices, and much more), I was willing to spend the extra money for it. I bought it directly from Amazon.com and it came well packaged and arrived in less than a week. After spending some time reading the user's manual (which is written in clear easy-to-understand English), it did not take long to set up the frame for viewing. I used the internal memory for the music files and put the picture files on an SD card and it works very smoothly. The pictures are bright and clear with great color and the music adds a very nice touch to the slideshow. This is a great product for a great price and has a lot of great features. I recommend this frame for anyone looking for one in this size.

5.0 out of 5 stars buying a second one for myself, March 7, 2009

I purchased a couple of digital photo frames as gifts. This is one brand I chose from Consumer Report recommendation. I also chose an 8 inch HP as recommended also. I have given the HP to my mother as it is really easy to activate and she likes simplicity. I will order this one for myself as it has more options. The clarity is great and I love the size of the frame. I would recommend it to everyone. I have tested it for a couple of weeks with no issues.
