Does this unit have the slide show feature or do you have to turn the photos one at a time? Access point? This means it will need an access point wireless connected. Correct?

Thomas, yes it has slide show feature. Yes, you will need to have WiFi available for the photo frame to connect to. One thing which I'm still having trouble to get the thing work is to connect to my picasa account. It can work with public pictures, but when I want to connect to private pictures the whole thing hang.

Yes, this frame has a slide show feature. I set this up for my mother using an SD card. You can set up the slide show speed, shuffle photos, etc. You don't need to be connected to the internet to have your slide show if you are getting pictures from the card internally. If you wanted to connect to an online picture account (like Picasa), I presume you would need your frame connected to the wifi, but as I didn't set that up on the frame, I can't speak to how easy or difficult it was.

Wish I could help. Got mine because i have a wireless system and that's what i wanted. Sadly, still in the box. Your question had motivated me to open it. I'll publish a review shortly.

Has a slideshow. I believe you can load pictures to the frame itself. I have mine connected to wifi. The meeframe website was not friendly so I linked my frame to a flicker account and email pictures to the flicker account. The frame then downloads pictures from there. But has to be connected to Internet to work.

The frame does have a slide show feature and has nice transitions between pictures. Transition types and rate can be adjusted. The frame has a built-in wireless NIC which can be used to connect to your home wireless network. I purchased this frame because of the wireless support. I configured the frame to connect to my Flickr account and gave it to my mother so she could see our family photos. The problem that I and others have encountered is the frame loses its wireless configuration after a few days. I'm considering replacing the frame with an Android tablet.

You have to go to a website which does not really work. If you read the comments on here, I think you will realize you should pass this item up.

your pictures will upload instantly to any WiFi enabled device you have activated. So you don't have to wait til you get back to the hotel to upload them. That is if you upload over the cellular network :-)

I don't think so, and neither does my husband. We have both used it for slide shows. It's a minimalist item. I used it with my laptop to show slides of my paintings; he used it with a USB flash drive for a presentation at work. Neither of us was overwhelmed with the results. The connectivity was a real issue.

I don't know I can only assume it does. I never used it much as it was complicated - you had to use the wireless system that it generated and then the quality of photos wasn't what I expected.

I had to use an SD card. I didn't find that to be an issue. The scanner worked great, and I did several thousand slides!

You have to go through the camera selections and set it up and you will need a memory card with WiFi ability in order to do that. You can purchase it at a photo store where they probably will also help you to set this up.

I have a 7FFICWO model. In addition to this information, I discovered that the only way that the picture frame would function properly from my 1G SD memeory card was to turn the frame on without the SD card plugged in; then plug the SD card in after it was on; then cycle to the 'slideshow' mode. Any other sequence resulted in the frame started out OK for several pictures and then freezing up.

Yep. The interface is a little clunky though. Only wifi feature i've really used is the remote display/shutter.

I bought this for my son last Christmas. He said it may have to be a slide show but yes she can view her photos. He also has ipod touch 4. He is 12 and enjoyed getting this.

According to the product description, this frame can display photos from a cloud account via WiFi. Check out the Amazon reviews for more details.

There was no such requirement when I reviewed this item. There was an offer to sign up with an external cloud service to record images, but it was optional. Your WiFi is your own business, not theirs, beyond using the camera to connect free via your local connection.

I uploaded the PlayMemories software to my iPad Air and had no problems to move the photos wireless from the camera to the device. It did not work for my iPhone but will try it again over the weekend through a open wireless connection. I also have a Samsung Galaxy 3 - the camera has NFC combatibility which I will test over the weekend in addition to the wireless transfer. More to come on that.

If you mean to set up the details of how the camera works? YES. Im a little technical and this camera is not a simple plug and play. I have yet to figure out how to get it to work on wi-fi so I have it plugged into ethernet and still have some kinks to work out. The quality of the day/night viewing is amazing and it basically works as a IP Camera. I think im going to buy some different software as I cant seem to get the record to work well.

I had to contact Foto Tech as there was no information enclosed how to set up-maybe now on you tube they have put something out. You have to change a wifi menu setting as I recall but the product works great and the price is right. Good luck.

Are you referring to service that allows you to upload pictures to this frame from a remote location over wifi or 3g/4g? There is no service fee for using this frame, its not wi-fi or 3g/4g enabled. You need to connect to your computer or load photos through usb/sd card and plug it in to a power supply to display photos.

There is a spicific slide that the photo slides sit it but I was able to "free hand" the larger slides in the machine. It is extremely simplistic and easy to use!

Hi. This bundle comes with the camera. It's an awesome deal and a fantastic camera! Check the camera model #s this is NOT the model with the WiFi feature. That may be the differentiator. I actually purchased an Eye-Fi SD memory card that gives me WiFi capabilities to transfer my pics to multiple devices. It's tha Bomb.com
