Sony Ericsson IDP-100 - Sony Ericssons First Digital Photo Frame

For too long mobile phone images have been confined to the phone - hidden away and viewed only occasionally and only on a small screen. Now it’s time to unleash these photos and display them with pride with the help of the superb Sony Ericsson IDP-100 Digital Photo Frame, the ideal accessory to your Sony Ericsson Cyber-ShotTM phone.


Thanks to the easy transfer of photos from not only your Cyber-ShotTM but also regular cameras, budding photographers can display their best shots in all their glory. Transfer your favourite images in a variety of ways, BluetoothTM, USB flash memory, M2 card, micro SD, SD or MS Duo, to ensure that nothing is left unseen. With a sleek dark grey finish, which adds style to any surrounding, this stylish 7″ photo frame will let you display photos in either landscape or portrait format and can be mounted on a wall or sat on a bedside table or office desk.



“Memories are priceless and irreplaceable” said Jacob Sten, Head of the accessories division at Sony Ericsson. “The IDP-100 Digital Photo Frame is the perfect companion to your Cyber-shotTM phone and lets you display your favourite moments easily and in high quality for all to see. However, it’s not just mobile phone users that can benefit from the IDP-100. We are proud that the frame receives stores and displays up to 500 still images through a variety of options. Once uploaded they are automatically rotated, enhanced and re-sized to fit the frame - so that you can enjoy your memories instantly.”

The IDP-100 sits perfectly with the C905 Cyber-shotTM phone. The first phone to offer an 8.1 megapixel camera now has the ideal accessory that will help you show off your high quality images in all their glory. The photos can be displayed and managed with the touch sensitive control menu, just view the slideshow options and pick your personal preference. In addition, the Digital Image Correction (DIC), included with the IDP-100 will ensure the photos are displayed to perfection as it automatically adjusts your images - this includes colour correction, tone enhancement and even edge enhancement.

Sony Ericsson C902

Sony Ericsson’s latest Cyber-shot phone has an impressive mix of imaging and phone functions.The C902 Cyber-shot™ phone is made for great pictures. The slide-out lens cover activates the 5-megapixel camera. Adjust settings via onscreen touch keys.People in focusIf you have people in your photo, activate Face detection.

Your C902 will automatically find and focus on a face.In the darkDon't let poor lighting stop you. For still pictures, the photo flash automatically fires when needed. The flash can be used in BestPic™ mode and for videos too.has a surprisingly small 2" 262K-color TFT display of QVGA resolution. When the display is off, it does look like at least a 2.2 incher, but with the lights on the reason for this size is obvious - there are eight touch sensitive camera keys that backlight in blue around the display. More about them is to come later on. As a camera-centric phone, Among them are face detection, image and video stabilizer, BestPic, auto-rotate, macro mode, photoflash LED, etc.

The camera itself is rather discrete, slumbering under a trademark sliding top. Once you slide it up, the camera is revealed and you are ready to shoot. The flimsy sliding mechanism (no spring assist or anything) in our beta version of the phone will certainly see improvements before the final version hits the shelves.With a full metal casing, the C902 feels quite pleasant in hand, the commendable 10.5 mm slimness going well with the hefty 107 g of weight. Glossy surfaces dominate the front, the rear is all matt.

The photoflash LED makes a compact and more efficient substitute for the xenon flash used in small digicams and cameraphones. The new photoflash LED is stated to produce approximately 25 lux/s. Its smaller size and twice less power consumption than standard xenon flash make it especially suitable for portable devices. It also doesn't need to recharge the way the xenon flash needs to after it has discharged when it fires.




The accelerometer based game Need for Speed Pro Street
The other new feature spotted in the settings menu is the TV-Out, which allows you to set the TV-out function to work in either PAL or NTSC mode - not really of importance if you have a multi-system TV set. We wonder if the TV-out cable will be included in the C902 retail package - that would be cool.

Sony Ericsson K850i

The K850i slams down its rivals with its winning combo of bona-fide camera flair and excellent
picture quality. Undoubtedly the best camera phone around,
It might have been beaten to the five-megapixel punch by the likes of the Nokia N95,
Samsung G600 and LG Viewty U990 but Sony Ericsson has been quietly plotting
an imaging revolution. This HSDPA Cyber-shot aspires to be like its standalone
brethren, displaying features, tricks and mannerism normally associated with a wholly dedicated
digital camera.

Some pictures that a friend of mine took of the Sony Ericsson K850i - the only Sony Ericsson phone that I've managed to not hate! Don't know why but I just adore the k850i, maybe it's the looks - not sure though..

Read about the N95 vs K850i..
