    WHAT: The new Sony HD Series S-Frame™ Digital Photo Frame

    The HD Series S-Frame™ digital photo frames let consumers display
     their favorite memories with innovative, high-quality features,
     including Full HD video (1920x1080/60p*) playback.

    The new models offer AVCHD and MP4 video playback, allowing
     consumers to view detailed, realistic video with vivid colors and
     contrast directly on the units' high-resolution LED backlight
     LCD screen. An advanced image processor scales and displays
     content up to 192 megapixels, making these frames capable of
     handling footage taken with even the most advanced digital
     cameras or HD camcorders, including Sony's Alpha (A-mount/E-
     mount), Bloggie®, Cyber-shot®, and Handycam® family of products.

    A variety of display and effects modes makes creating fun and
     original photo slideshows a breeze. Slideshow options include
     Clock, Calendar, Time Machine and Random.

    With 2GB of internal memory, each of these three frames can store
     thousands of images.  Maximizing internal space, the models offer
     auto-resizing that downsizes photos so you can store them within
     the device and return your memory card back to your camera.
     Additionally, the internal memory can store up to 40 songs
     allowing you to enjoy background music while viewing photos or
     watching slideshows. Supported audio formats are mp3, AAC, and
     Linear PCM.

    Digital images can be loaded onto the frames' internal memory from
     a USB thumb drive or several types of media cards, including SD,
     SDHC, SDXC Memory Card and Memory Stick PRO Duo™. All models
     support JPEG and Alpha's RAW (thumbnail preview) image file
     formats.
