Product Description

The MF-575 digital picture frame is a photo, MP3, and video player. The MF-575 sports a bright, high-resolution 5.6-inch TFT screen that displays digital photos and video clips in vivid color. Set up as a slide show and play directly from a memory card. The number of images is only limited by the capacity of the memory card being used. The MF-575 accepts MD/SD/MMC cards for maximum compatibility with major digital cameras. The MF-575 comes with a wood picture frame. You can change the look of the MF-575 to fit your décor with any off-the-shelf wood 5x7 picture frame. The unit is light, portable and easy to use. A great companion to your digital camera and an excellent way of showing off your pictures and video clips to family and friends. Another cool feature is the ability to add MP3 music tracks to your memory card and listen to the tunes over the built-in stereo speakers. The unit also supports MPEG1, 2, 4 movie formats for play back of digital camera movies or movies created on the PC.

This frame is great for what I wanted it to do - play a picture slideshow. Ignore whatever else it says it does. It plays mp3s and you'd think that you can play music in the background while the slideshow is going, but you'd be wrong. Technically, you could do it, but the song starts skipping around - I guess there isn't much processing power in the frame. In its defense, I didn't expect it to have much.

I was also a little bummed that the only video supported is MPEG (and I haven't even tried that yet). It's a shame one of the most popular formats (AVI) isn't supported.

Those are all the negatives. As for what I do like about it:

- Very nice looking wooden frame

- Plays slideshows (and as soon as you power it on, without any other interaction)

- Loops through pictures non-stop

- Random picture fade in/out effects

- A lot of video options (brightness, sharpness, hue, contrast, etc.)

- Separate slots for SD card and USB cable

- Comes with an easy-to-use SD card reader/writer that plugs into a USB port

- Had my first slideshow up and running within 5 minutes of opening the box (easy to set up, didn't even need the manual)

It's a great digital picture frame, but keep your expectations low as far as the background music capability goes.

Just What I was looking for! November 13, 2006
By Terri
I love cool gadgets and this one is inexpensive, easy to use and the picture quality is great. I put cell phone pictures, digital camara pics and a music CD on a SanDisk to check out its capabilities and I am truly impressed. I can play music... but volume controll is by menu and that's not easily controlled as an external control would be but I was more interested in running a series of pics like vacation, family events, etc. Music and pics don't work and I haven't tried Music videos yet. I plan on buying a few more for family and may even use them for a corporate gift to customers.

Oh so close to a 5 star rating. Be warned that the description says that a remote control is included. IT IS NOT. Not a deal breaker for me but it should be removed from the included list. Larger picture files should be reduced so that they are not distorted when displayed.

Pros: The 89.99 sale price was to good to pass up. The screen is brightly lit and the images appear to be pretty sharp. The menu is easy to understand and navigate. The wood frame that is packaged can be replaced with other frames and is easy to remove and looks good.

Cons: The instructions. Now I'm no idiot and have plenty of high tech gadgets, but the instructions only go as far as to spell out what each functions are for the setup menu. THAT'S IT. I have never used a card reader before, so I had no idea that the un-documented gadget included was one. Took me a few to figure out that you had to remove the plastic cover over the end where you insert your SD card. That's when I felt like an idiot. After that it was smooth sailing.

All in all I'm pleased with the digital frame, but better instructions on how to use the card reader and correct listing of the included items and I would have rated this higher.

Not your best option in Digital Picture Frames
There are better options for Digital Picture frames than Memory Frame.

For starters - the picture isn't great. The user's manual is not helpful at all. Read more

Cool thought but worthless device!
First off I was very exited to get this, I recieved it as a gift so I did not get to fully review it before I got it. Therefore I had high expectations. Read more

Chipped Frame
This is a great frame, but it was chipped on the edge forcing me to paint the frame.

It Works Great
Looks great but Im not a fan of how the pictures get uploaded. Kind of clunky becuase you have to get a very small USB drive to fit.

You get what you pay for
Ho-hum. It was the cheapest I could find, and I got what I paid for. The picture isn't very sharp. It's most glaring defect is the lack of brightness control! Read more

Died After 6 Months
When I first got this frame I thought it was OK. The price was good, the picture quality was acceptable from a reasonable distance, and the frame itself looked nice. Read more

Digi Frame Review
This product works fine except for the fact it gets hot very fast. We can't just leave it on running all day.
