I bought this for my dad for Christmas ... and he Loves it! So do I.

It was Extremely Easy to setup. I did not use the built-in memory. I bought a 2 GB memory card for $6.49. I pulled the photo frame from the box and plugged it in. It automatically started in demo mode and displayed the demo images. I copied my dad's images to the external memory card that I bought. When I insert the card into the photo frame it automatically began displaying them ... changing pictures every 10 seconds. It really was just that easy!!

I used the remote control to change the display time from 10 seconds to 1 minute. I set the date and time and that's it. Done.

The display is great! Before I bought this I went to Best Buy and compared this unit (DPF-D70) to others and by far the Sony is superior. While at Best Buy another shopper was also comparing quality and chose the Sony.

This is a Great product that I will buy again as a gift for others.

I took weeks researching digital picture frames, carried an SD card with some of my favorite photos with me as I went on my hunt for a picture frame. I visited every electronics retailer in my area testing many different brands and models in my price range and after i made my decision I purchased this item from Amazon because they as expected always have the best price! You won't be dissapointed with this picture frame. Excellent picture quality, more than enough memory (256MB) and support for just about every memory card format out there.

Simple, intuitive design. We bought this frame mostly because we needed a digital photo frame that would accept an SDHC (high capacity) memory card (most of the digital photo frames accept SD cards, but can't process the high capacity cards). The camera that the recipient has uses SDHC cards, so we needed a frame that would allow the transfer of photos by simply taking the SDHC card out of the camera, and popping it into the photo frame (no computer involved). This frame immediately started playing the photos on the card (we didn't need to look at the instructions). We still haven't bothered to check out what all you can do with this photo frame because we already have accomplished what we wanted from it, but at some point we may be curious enough to access more options.
We chose the RED frame because the recipient of this gift LOVES red (there is no other color in his universe). The red that Sony chose is a really nice hue--it has an upscale "glow," and is a true red (not a burgundy, or a brick red).
We are very pleased with the look, and ease of use of this photo frame.

Sony DPF-D70 7-inch Digital Photo Frame
So far all the photo features work nicely and the process of uploading photos from a computer work seamlessly. I am not sure how long the remote will continue to work as the "buttons" are small and hard to isolate and push down.

One of the clock features (old analog type) that my in-laws particularly liked started pixelating or breaking apart on the screen so that you could not see the clock anymore. Email advice from Sony to do a "re-set" did not solve the problem. We do not use that feature any more and selected a digital like clock with the date instead.

Other than that, I am satisfied with the product.

My son loves it. It helps him capture and display his college experience. Nice features too.

This frame was extremely easy to use. I took 300 pictures taken with various digital cameras (everything from a $100 point and shoot to a Nikon D300) and had Photoshop Elements 5 resize all of them to 1600 X xx (selected constrain proportions). I then copied all of the pics to a $12 1GB SD card and inserted the card in the frame. Every picture displays perfectly without one issue.

This digital picture frame can hold up to 500 pictures- it can carry years of memories within one frame. The quality of the photographs is unbelievable. The size is perfect for putting on display in the living room for everyone to see or in the bedroom. The best part is that you can personalize it according to the pictures you want to use. I love it, I am thinking of buying another!
