Last night I had a discussion with my friend photographer about digital picture frames. We agreed that pretty soon they will become something you'll see in almost every home.
As digital photography is coming more and more popular, amateur photographers all over the world are making less and less printed photographs. Some of you also have the same 'problem'. You have hundreds of photos and none printed.
One solution would be to select some of your photos and print them. I suggest you to do that.
The other solution is still kind of new, so you might not have heard about it.
Digital picture frame is similar to any picture frame you have seen. The difference is that it has memory and LCD screen. You transfer your photo (usually via USB), and it shows the photo on screen. There are many manufacturers, some are unknows some are big brands like Kodak or Phillips.
There are some advantages and also disadvantages in this approach.
Bad things first: actually the only bad thing about this is its price. Usually not too expensive but more expensive than regular print of few photos.
The advatages:
- resolution needed for great results is smaller then when you want to print the photo - this is usefull when you crop the picture a lot, or want big print.
- you can see it in the dark, too.
- at the moment when you decide that you want other photo, you just transfer another one - and its done
- it looks sexy
