A couple questions I didn't find answers for..... I just bought the Kodak pulse but have not set it up yet. I bought it because I like the size and the frame. I don't care about the WiFi or being able to e-mail pictures or even to be able to store up to 4000 pictures on the frame. I understand that the pictures stored on the frame will not show if you use a USB or SD card.My questions are as follows. Can you use the USB or SD card to show pictures without connecting to WiFi or signing up for e-mails to be sent directly to the picture? I would prefer to use my own USB or SD card where I can just put on or take off pictures directly from my computer and just plug it in to the frame. This is the first frame I found that was the right size and the resolution quality is great. A couple questions I didn't find answers for.....

I have purchased but not tried it out yet. I'm on vacation between Christmas and New Years and this is one of my projects I'm planning on working on during that time. I have already bought a SD card and that is how I'm planning on using it. Thanks for the response. It's great to hear from people who enjoy this frame.

There are instructions that tell you how. It's easy to switch back and forth between video and photos. I've had some trouble with the camera or the speed of the micro SD card not being able to write fast enough. The result is that the image gets stuck on a frame. If you're looking for a reliable camera, I would search elsewhere. This behaves more like a toy!

Sorry, it's more complicated than that. This device has both USB and SD card storage capability. The "number" of photos that this device can store depends on whether you're storing them internally or on one of these external storage devices, the capacity of the storage device, AND the aggregate file sizes of the photos. Some of these devices (sorry I didn't note if this one can) can play back vids, which take up much more storage space than simple pictures. Memory is cheap, so don't scrimp. What I did for my non-tech parents-organize pictures by category (vacation, child's wedding, etc.) and put them on different USB drives. Write on the drive what's on it, and let them view the ones they feel like. This frame actually uses a sensor that senses the presence of people, so goes to sleep when no one's around, and pauses with screen off when you leave the room. Buy a few USB drives-they're cheap. Load them up and show insert the USB drive, and turn the frame on. Most of them will simply start up when turned on and no settings are changed.

my Kodak Z812S...and even my old Kodak DX7630 take better pictures than the Fuji S1800. My first digital was a Fuji with 3.2 mp and it was a honey! Since then, two more Kodaks (as mentioned previously) one Sony (which is purse-sized and the pix are okay...it's just so I always have a camera on me) and the Fuji S1800. I have about 120 out of 200 or so that are great pictures from Hawaii; and maybe 80 - 100 more from various events and locations. My Eastern Europe shots were not what I hoped for, but editing helped a lot.I'm online now to order the Z981 and will probably post my opinion of the results.With all that said...I'd suggest you go with the Kodak. my Kodak Z812S...and even my old Kodak DX7630 take better pictures than the Fuji S1800.

I'd like to know this as well, and where to buy the PANWF01 as it seems out of stock everywhere. May have been discontinued?Also, assuming I get the PANWF01 WiFi adapter:- Is it limited for use ONLY with Picasso online service? MSN's FrameIt has been shut down.- Can I send pics from my computer directly to the Pandigital frame?- Can I delete pics on the Pandigital frame from my computer?Or, can anyone recommend a digital picture frame with these capabilities? This Pandigital frame can't even use basic Folders on my USB.

Read my post of 6/9/06...my experience may not be the norm...but it's frustrating. IF...and that's a big if..I ever buy another digital from Kodak, you can bet I'll buy the dock, as it appears that's the only sure way to get pictures.Normally you should be able to use the included software and download to your computer with little or no problems. Try that before buying the dock. And good luck. Hopefully your camera will function correctly.

I got mine T2i someplace else because Amazon was out, but they included a Transcend 8gb class 10 and I could only get 9 pictures on continuous before it slowed down. I ordered and received a Sandisk Extreme III class 10 4g from Amazon and now I can do over 40 continous(didn't bother to figure out if there is a number bigger). So if your using continuous and need get lots of frames go with the Sandisk Extreme III, for single frame anything will work.

I have not found an app to put on my PC. I've had this camera for over 2 years and still can't find a PC app for it, only the smartphone app...if you find a PC app let me know. It's the easiest camera to setup with limited options BUT you trade options for easy setup. I have other cameras for more sophisticated stuff but this one is the best for simple setup and decent enough observation for simple stuff...pick your poison, all depends on what you're trying to watch. Hopefully they'll come up with a desktop app.

Hey Pierce, Im not sure what your asking? Are you asking how well SBP can bring in a image? If your able scan a sketch, then whatever the res of your scanner settings is how the image will be imported....I have a Kodak ESP 7250 (cheap printer & scanner combo) and I haven't had any trouble at all.. Cheers and good luck, Keep sketching.

There is some limited internal memory (for things like stock photos supplied by the manufacturer); however, I was unable to find any info on how to, or whether it is even possible to, transfer any of one's personal pictures to this internal memory. I just assumed it's not possible after reading the instructions. The viewer accepts SD cards or USB-type memory sticks. You plug them in and view the pictures on the memory devices only while they are plugged in. It does not seem possible to transfer pictures from these memory devices to the internal memory. - John

A thousand times better!!! Started with the Pulse which died in six months. Got another. Died in six months. Kodak no longer fixes the Pulse when it breaks. In fact, after speaking with them, I was told they no longer sell them. Anyway, we've had this Pix Star for maybe two years and have never had an issue with it. It's really more sophisticated than the Pulse was, but we simply use it as a photo frame where we can easily email a picture to it.

The mb size of pictures are different that is what to look for, MB size. Yes I keep card in it, but switch to new card with new pictures so card is normally last viewed pictures. Sometimes I put older card in to let people view them. SD cards should be a backup to what you have on PC. You also should have extra USB HD backing those up. Frames are to show people not storage for pictures. Get big viewing frame ( inside area ) so people can see the pictures.

No, nothing shows up at all, except that the drive is attached. I backed the drive up from my computer, not directly from the camera, could this be why? I have contacted Kodak and they will not help because they say it is not supported.

Many cameras do not have this card. In fact, I am a recipient of Hurricane Sandy. The adjuster had to get a special unit to fit this card in so that he could record the pictures of his computer. He had the unit to do this in his mobile office. I notice I could not buy this card locally, so I purchased it through Amazon. Thank goodness for Amazon. I purchased the camera in a camera store and it is a wonderful camera. I have moved and to go back there is 35 miles. I do not have trouble getting pictures from the Kodak machines in the stores. You are correct, it is not what most other cameras use, but I am satisfied with it.Hope this answers you question Many cameras do not have this card. In fact, I am a recipient of Hurricane Sandy.

As Kevin said it will connect like a flash drive when plugged in.While you asked I might as well add: if anyone else is wondering about OLDER software,I have used it on an older computer running Win XP that doesn't support the camera's share software and used the camera with the USB cord as a flash drive no problem.The only *issue* I had is the camera has to be turned on, (on my computer at least) it will it shut off and disconnect if it sits idle too long. Not a big deal, but just figured I would tell you.. if you connected it, then went to go do something and come back and your directory is gone.. just turn the camera back on. :) As Kevin said it will connect like a flash drive when plugged in.While you asked I might as well add: if anyone else is wondering about OLDER software,I have used it on an older computer running Win XP that doesn't support the camera's share software and used the camera with the USB cord as a flash drive no problem.The only *issue* I had is the camera has to be turned on, (on my computer at least) it will it shut off and disconnect if it sits idle too long.

Love it, regards to waiting you can put the camera in a multi snap mode that will take one shot right after another, battery lasts forever, bought an extra one almost never get to use it, haven't noticed or paid attention to resolution changes on zooming. I also have a Sony Cybershot, the Casio is my goto camera, Cybershot takes slightly better quality pictures when you have the time, but the battery can go dead just sitting around for a few weeks, Casio is always there and ready to go.
