Beware if you have an HD video camera. There is no way to determine from the specs online or the box, but the Kodak frame cannot display HD video. As most new video cameras are HD video, this maske the frame worthless for video. They bury a disclaimer in the manual. Some Kodak frames do play HD video. Very irritating.

Bought this as a gift for my daughter. Nice picture quality and easy to use. My only comment is that it seems to only allow random selection of the pictures and not in the order that we have them on the disk.

This 7″ frame is a good value for those looking for a small desktop digital frame. It’s fairly easy to use, has a sharp bright display and is flexible in terms of storage (photos can be shown directly from a memory card/stick or moved to internal memory). There are a variety of transition effects, and the display can be set for single picture viewing or mosaic (collage with different sizes shown at once) or a photo alongside a clock or calendar. The frame is controlled through touch sensitive, lighted buttons that appear in the border when you move your hand over the frame. The labels for the buttons appear on the screen and your brain will want you to touch the screen, but after some practice, you’ll learn that the buttons are the lights on the border, not the label on the LCD. Just a slightly counter-intuitive interface, but you adjust fairly quickly. If you don’t need a huge display, music or videos, and want to stay on the small side, this Kodak P730 is good choice.
PROS:
Sharp, bright display. Easy setup – just plug in a card with pics and the photos start. Has internal memory, so you don’t need to purchase another memory card. Several display modes (single pic, mosaic, clock, calendar). Several transition effects (including a Ken Burns-like “pan and zoom”). Can play slides in sequential or random order. Has timer for auto on/off.
CONS:
Slightly odd interface. User manual is sparse (more helpful info available online). Pan-and-zoom transition has fixed 10 second display per photo (other modes will allow many other timed settings).
