Digital camera reviews of Kodak EX-811 Easyshare 8-inch Digital Picture Frame with Wireless Capability
Digital camera Review: Feature packed, and wi-fi makes it awesome
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this frame for my mother-in-law to have with her so we could push photos of my daughter to her. This is done over the wi-fi, as kodak lets the frame pull photos from an online gallery that we can upload pictures to.
Note however that I have seen this frame freeze up (just while being on and doing its thing), and thus needing a power-off-power-on cycle (no need to unplug, as there is a switch).
For the price, feature packed!
Digital camera Review: Frustrated!
Summary: 2 Stars
I just bought/received two of these and I've been trying to set one up for three hours now. Seems, although the pictures I've copied to an SD card are in JPEG format, this frame won't acknowledge the pictures I've taken w/my Canon and other digital cameras. Went to software to see if I needed to Sync it and the software doesnt recognize/acknowledge the frame (only cameras). Also, cant get Kodak picture transfer software to work to transfer files via computer/USB. The Kodak website contact/chat room is closed and, of course, there's no "800" number to call anyone either. Should have done more research before buying!Digital camera Review: Good Product, Needs Some Tweaking
Summary: 3 Stars
Great color & clarity. Some problems with the wireless connectivity. Initially slideshow would not show pics faster than one per minute! After contacting Kodak customer service, performed firmware upgrade and improved to approximately 5 seconds. However, the slideshow still "chokes" frequently. Also, bottom of picture gets cropped off.Digital camera Review: Good product with a few flaws
Summary: 4 Stars
Pluses - timer allows you to set the on and off time of pictures so the frame isn't working when you're not there. Pictures are good quality. Memory holds quite a few, but not as many as using the SD card. Remote works well and set-up is very easy
Minuses - doesn't randomly sort pictures. SD card has to be pulled out and re-inserted each time it comes on to see pictures on card (this is the biggest minus). Downloading from Kodak network is very slow - almost not usable.
Overall - I would recommend. Probably wouldn't pay for WiFi capability next time.
Digital camera Review: Great Picture Quality, needs better wifi usability
Summary: 4 Stars
This photo frame has great picture quality, runs video and music files and overall looks good.
The wifi works good but you'll want to be a more advanced user to get use out of it. I'm fairly geeky and I think I'll just stick with the card slot. The Kodak Photogallery software is also cumbersome. You can download it from thier site to try it out before you buy the frame.
The documentation is minimal and poorly written. I was under the impression that I could copy files over the network to the frame and play them, nope. I also misunderstood and thought family and friends could email photos directly to the frame through my network, if it's there I couldn't figure it out. Maybe you'll have better luck with the wifi.
Even with the preconceived misunderstandings, this frame is a good product and you can navigate (with proper premissions) your entire network and play all sorts of media files.
