Digital camera reviews of Ceiva Digital Photo Receiver Model LF2000
Digital camera Review: Ceiva In Control
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this for my family in Puerto Rico. When they came to the mainland for a visit, we set it up in the guest room for them. It certainly impressed them, as it seemed to be user-friendly and just kept flashing pictures of those grandkids. From the transmitter end (i.e. the sending PC), I found it a little cumbersome (and slow) to upload 10 pictures, even on a fast ISDN connection. Looking at the Ceiva screen myself, I would say it looks like a small, early laptop-grade image, and suffers badly at even 30 degree angles. It also washes out in any bright room light or indirect sunlight. All of that notwithstanding, it still seemed like a pretty good means of getting pictures of the grandkids to my in-laws without their having to do any downloading via the Internet. Then the bad news: when they got it home to Puerto Rico, it wouldn't work. Ceiva customer service informed me that even if we didn't mind it making a daily long distance call, the box was not set up to dial long distance (I see where a Canadian customer has had the same experience). So there it sits, in Puerto Rico, USA, displaying the original 10 photos from 4 months ago, while my monthly subscription to the Ceiva service ticks away.Digital camera Review: Ceiva Internet Picture Frame

The product is not only "A GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING," but it is also a great vehicle to express your thoughts and creativity!I am a computer graphics enthusiast, so I like to manipulate photos of my family and friends and tell stories with them (similar to the way you would in a photo album or scrap book). Uploading your photos with text messages and setting your Ceiva viewing to Slide-Show-Mode allows you to do just that.
It's one of those things you have to EXPERIENCE to appreciate fully. You will continuously discover cool uses for it.
It's a great way to keep in touch. You definitely get more than your bargained for! Enjoy.
Digital camera Review: Ceiva Links Families
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the Ceiva frame to allow easy access of family photos, especially our newborn grandson, who is with his Mom and Dad in London, 3000 miles from us. My husband is not a computer person, so he can enjoy the slide show anytime. The frame is always "on" with the changing photos and adding additional pictures through the internet connection is fast and easy. I think I enjoy the frame more than my husband, and I bought it for him! I highly recommend it to computer literate families, who want to share photos with those who cannot receive traditional email. I however, update my own frame with my London connection email photos, so it's great for those who enjoy technology too. I'm thinking of adding a second frame so that I can see the beautiful slide show in another part of my home.Digital camera Review: Ceiva Photo Frame

We purchased this frame for the paternal grandmother. We set everything up for her and she took it home with instructions to plug it in to a phone line. Once she got it working she brought all the neighbors over to see it. It is the one gift I think we have bought her that she really enjoys. We re-purchase the subscription every year as part of her Chrismas gift. We then purchased one for the maternal grandparents and they similarly enjoy it. Each of them has problems understanding that they do not need to turn it off,(to save money.....) push the button to constantly upload more pictures (they get impatient) or that it will not print the pictures. Other than that it was a successful gift.Digital camera Review: Ceiva Picture Frame
Summary: 5 Stars
Being connected to family and friends is a gift beyond measure. The joy of seeing loved ones anytime of the day through this electronic picture frame keeps us in touch with everyday life happenings. It is the last thing we see at night before retiring and the first thing that greets us in the morning.We found the Ceiva picture frame an ongoing communicator that allows us to be in touch with people who do not have access or the ability to use a computer. Our parents look forward each day with joyful anticipation for new pictures of their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
We had occasions where we were in need of some technical help. The courteous and speedy response from the customer support was very reassuring and reflecting the integrity of the company. We enthusiastically have recommended it to all our friends and acquaintances.
