Product Release: Image Moments 6 Digital Photo Frame

DIGITAL PHOTO FRAME WITH HIGHEST PIXEL DENSITY

Digital Foci, Inc. recently announced the launch of its Image Moments 6 high-resolution digital photo frame.  Image Moments 6 displays photos on its 5.7” high-resolution digital LCD screen with the highest pixel density available on the market for superior image clarity and detail as compared to similarly-sized digital frames.

Based on the previous version of the Image Moments - Model IMT-081 8” digital frame (winner of The Professional Photographer 2007 Hot One Awards), the new Image Moments 6 is a smaller, lower-cost version of the digital frame with a contemporary design, perfect for compact places, like a bedside table or office desk.  With its brushed chrome facade and polished chrome highlights, Image Moments 6 matches perfectly with any living room or office décor.

Priced at only $159, Image Moments 6 lets you display photos directly from virtually any digital camera memory card at home or at the office without a computer or subscription needed.  Image Moments 6 supports all popular memory cards - CompactFlash, MicroDrive, SD card, MMC, Memory Stick, MS PRO, xD-Picture Card, and even MS Duo/MS PRO Duo directly without needing an adapter.  It also has a USB slot to support USB thumb drives.

Image Moments 6 is extremely easy for anyone - from kids to grandparents - to use.  Just insert a memory card or USB thumb drive into Image Moments 6 and your photos and videos will come instantly to life.  The frame’s “Photo Slideshow Mode” automatically displays your photos with options for random photo play, transition effects, and slideshow intervals. You can also playback videos or photo slideshows with MP3 music to personalize your experience.

You can easily navigate, select, and view your digital photos with Image Moment’s full-featured Remote Control and On-Screen Display. The File Library Mode lets you playback photos from specific folders – so you can organize your photo collection by events and select which ones to view.  File management features, such as copy, delete, renames files, and create folder make it easy to work directly on Image Moments 6 and completely eliminate the need for a computer. It also features an automatic on/off timer with dual time settings, which can be set to turn on and off according to your schedule.
