This frame is a little fancier than what I was looking for originally, but when it appeared on Amazon as a Gold Box Deal, I couldn't pass it up. This is a good looking frame with an excellent picture quality. It can be set up to display the image in it's original form, or the frame can auto zoom the photo to fill the screen. Mine is set up for the auto zoom and it's effective on about 98% of the pictures loaded. I would adjust the other 2% slightly if possible, but I can live with the auto settings. I was pleasantly surprised to find out this frame has an auto on/off feature. I have mine on my desk at work and it turns on before I come in, in the morning and shuts off when I leave for the day. I disable the auto on/off on Fridays, so it doesn't run unnecessarily when I'm not in the office. I can't comment on the bundled software as it's not compatible with Macintosh. However, if you're considering the purchase of this frame and you're a Mac user, don't fret. I used a thumb drive to transfer some initial files to the internal memory. There's also a mini USB connection on the frame that should allow you to connect and synch photos to the internal memory. I simply used a thumb drive to copy some photos to the frames internal memory before my SD card arrived. The frame automatically reduces the original file size in the transfer to conserve valuable internal memory space. Upon receipt of the SD card, I loaded it up with the photos I wanted and the frame instantly recognized it. 100% satisfied with this frame.
