We told you about Westinghouse’s Digital LCD Photo frame early this week and now we’ve seen it in the flesh. I must say, when I first glanced at it, my eyes almost seemed to be deceived as the picture was too bright, too vibrant, too hardcopy like. I picked up the frame, gave it a close look to see if pixels in fact where being displayed and not ink. Then I found the NEXT button on the rear. I pushed it and sure enough a new image appeared. ‘Wow,’ I thought, ‘This really is the display!’
It’s incredible kids and if you’re looking for an easy way to display your pictures but would like to add pizazz to the frame with frequent changes to the art being displayed, this I think may be your ticket. In fact, this is the first time that I would even recommend a digital frame. I was impressed!
Get ready for some new TX Series 1080p HDTVs from Westinghouse as it has just unleashed a list of new models to the world from CES today (TX-52F480S pictured). Featuring 42”, 47” and 52” screen sizes, the new TX Series, “Deliver razor-sharp images with their Full Color Spectrum and High Contrast Picture — which creates deeper blacks and richer dark scene details by dynamically matching the brightness of the TV backlight to that of the on-screen image.” DayBright helps give you a stunning picture for daytime viewing while also assisting in stunning night time viewing as well. Bullet details available by clicking the more link.
Westinghouse also is bringing DayBright to LCD monitors and the L2410NM is one such monitor that will be able to display your dull daily work in a 1920 x 1200 resolution with 700:1 contrast ratio, but also play HD content such as DVD movies and high-def video games. This 24″ wide-screen is a multifunctional monitor with HDMI-HDCP inputs, YPbPr with audio, CVBS/S-Video with audio, and PC with Audio In. You’ll be able to grab this by the end of this month for a dollar under $700.
With 22″, 20.1″, and 19″ LCDs also on tap for release in March, Westinghouse is playing serious with its new LCDs. Also on tap are 10.2”, 8”, 7” and 5.7” Digital LCD frames. The frames will play slideshows from your digital content off of just about every flash card type including CF I/II, MD, MS, MS Pro, MS Duo, MS Pro Duo, SD, MMC and XD. Pricing starts at $119 for the 5.7″ model going all the way up to $229.99 for the 10.2″ model.
When this digital photography revolution took off, one of the first things to come out of the gates after cameras was LCD desk displays. With the lack of brightness and power consumpution such a deficit, I’ve never been a big fan of these displays. But, with technology, everything ends up improving to a point (sans batteries, it seems.)
Looks like Digital Foci is one leader in this improved technology as its LCD displays are both stunning and practical. With a large 8 inch high-resolution display bordered by a beautiful selection of interchangeable frames, you’ll be sure to impress even the stingiest art critic. Its built-in support for common digital camera memory cards such as Secure Digital (SD) and Compact Flash (CF), automatic on/off timer, and brackets for easy wall mounting, make this a really versatile and nice picture frame. Going a step further, Digital Foci also added such features as a slideshow, video and music playback, and an excellent file management system that supports copying, deleting, and renaming pictures.
At $299 $229, I must say, I am impressed with this LCD display and we’re hoping to get one to review and let all of our readers know if the picture frame technology has finally arrived to the point in which you can show it off without shame.
