Yes, the original auction photos were taken with some nasty shadows overlaying the instrument.  Easy to do, but the seller should have re-shot them.

Good lord....take that outside and get some better pics!  My inner photographer sighs.....you have a 4000.00 product to sell, pics can go a LONG way.  And putting it against my grandmother's couch sure is causing some optical confusion!

At least you know its not a dealer or a total rip off by the amateurish photos, for high dollar, he's not going to get with those low dollar shots.

Maybe we should all chip in and buy him a new camera. This one looks to be top quality  :mrgreen:

LOL! "Why spend $$ on digital"? The funniest part is that the majority of their products is digital cameras!

They need to capture the moron market. The people who don't realize your photo processor can make prints off your memory card and who never heard of a digital photo frame.

Two cameras for $10, they must have high quality glass lenses.  ;D

Don't know, Denis... there are older family members that might find having a selection of family pictures that change to be quite endearing...

We often use the windows feature for randomly using home pics as a screensaver but not all of us have PC's... well... most of us here might... ;)

Funny you mention this, our old "flower" I-mac, we use in our kitchen as a non stop slide show, till it dies.


Now outdated (too small of a hard disc, too slow for current operating systems), but makes a great photo montage. It always stops people in their tracks who come over.

I have a small digital photo frame in my kitchen as well. I update it now and then with newer pics of my kids and they love it and wait for certain shots to come up. That I-mac idea is a great one!

I got a digital photo frame for Christmas - I have it in my office with about 1500 rotating pix of family, friends and vacations.  I like it.

+1 on the frame.  My father is 89, soon to be 90, and he wants for nothing - not that he has lots of toys and gizmos he just doesn't desire crap he's not going to use.  We gave him one of the photo frames last Christmas and it nearly had him tears.  I spent hours upon hours scanning old photos that he had forgotten even existed yet he remembered where everyone was taken and pretty much when!  Many of these were old brownie box snaps.  These things are fantastic gifts for older folks who are hard to buy for.

Yes, they have a real appeal for seniors, it's like a photo album they don't even need to get out, it's always there. Edith bought one for her mom (who generally treats any kind of present to the point of being impolite, but you are still expected to bring one!) and she hasn't stopped marvelling about it.

Me? I find them a bit corny now, but ask me again in twenty years from now ...
