Customer Rating:
Summary: Poor resolution
Comment: Don't lose the manual or the buttons will make no sense at all. It gets very hot. The images are poor quality and ratio must be reset to 3:2 before even halfway decent pictures appear. It has no internal memory.

Summary: its an ok photo frame
Comment: It's an ok photo frame.

Pro:
1. Easy setup. Plug the memory card with jpeg images inside, voila it starts default slideshow.
2. MP3 + slideshow
3. external screen. So this little frame could be connected to external monitor. (projector or widescreen tv)
4. Auto adjust photo size to fit the screen

Cons:
1. This screen is only 640x480. Above that resolution will only waste the memory space. The screen does not look sharp, and darker images would look washed out.
2. No album view. Meaning... even if you split your images into separate folders/albums. The frame would show all images thumbnails in multiple pages NOT by the folders/albums.

Summary: One worked great, one died in 3 days
Comment: This review is for the 8 inch Ziga model. I think some of the reviews here are for other, possibly older, models.

I'm glad I got the good one first. I really like it. Image quality is great for the provided resolution. No problem with colors. I sure wish I could figure out the order in which it presents the slides though! I was trying to make one of my kid from age 1 to 6, in order, but they don't appear in order.

The second one was a dud. The thumb control on the side would just cause the device to go black. I though I could live with that as the remote does most of what you need. But after running 5 days, it went black. Still "dings" when I start it up, but no image. Unfortunately I waited to try it out, assuming it would work, past the 30 day return policy, so I'll have to see if Ziga honors the warranty, and then update this review.

On update, Cadmus Micro replaced the dead unit under warranty. They were friendly and efficient. I am a happy customer - will change this to 4 stars if I can figure out how.

Summary: Crappy Display
Comment: Man! My pictures look horrible on this thing. I now only use it because I have it. But when I really want to show pictures to guests I either use my cell phone (which has a better resolution than this) or go to my computer.
