Kodak EasyShare DPFs: SV811 and SV710

22 Apr, 2008, 12:36 pm IST | by Shayne Rana |

The Digital Photo Frame (DPF) has become increasingly popular. DPFs don’t just offer a way to view your favorite photos; they also let you watch videos and play music. Indeed, they’re getting to be more and more like entertainment devices. Let's take a look at Kodak’s latest offerings: the SV811 and the SV710.

Form Factor
First off the SV811 has an 8 inch TFT active matrix display with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels and a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is a bit odd, considering most digital cameras by default capture images in a 4:3 ratio. Most images on DPFs thus exhibit black bars on either side of the image. The SV710 has a similar 7 inch display with a 480 x 234 pixel resolution. Screen size apart, both have the same chic design.

On one side behind the screen you’ll find the power switch and memory card slots. Both DPFs accept Secure Digital (SD), Multimedia Card (MMC), Memory Stick (MS), XD-Picture Card (xD), Compactflash (CF) and Microdrive (MD) type cards. On the other side is the DC-in socket for the power adapter, a 3.5mm earphone socket, volume control, standard USB v2.0 port for connecting pen drives, and the mini USB port for PC connectivity.

On top, behind the screen, is the control panel for all the features, including navigation, selection and volume. The best part about these DPFs is the extendable stand (very ingenious). Both DPFs come with full function remotes and also have wall-mounting slots.
