The picture frame was being considered as a birthday present and was also a nice surprise. Since I had very little time to set things right, I have not read the manual. The photo frame is intuitive to use and the quality of the images is very good. I just need a little something in the settings and you fit the colors. The photos must not be edited before consuming the PC. Simply go to a USB stick pull (or memory card) connect and away you go. Very nice is also the function that one of the photo frame at a specific time and off again.
