memory cards enable photo frames to 'go digital'
memory cards are enabling photo frames to be brought into the digital age, it has been suggested.
A New York Daily News report has highlighted the potential that memory cards containing digitally captured images have given the traditional photo frame.
Millions of people like to display their photographs around their home but many remain unaware that they can display dozens of images in a single frame by taking advantage of some of the latest memory card technology.
For those people who are familiar with digital technology, the latest photo display devices offer an affordable way to show off your favourite images, writes Matthew Weinberger.
However, the report also makes clear that consumers should be aware of balancing style with functionality when it comes to buying a digital photo frame and an associated memory card.
Meanwhile, the Spanish printing business Grafitex Servicios Digitales recently highlighted what it sees as a shift in emphasis from pre-press to digital technology within its industry sector.
