From TWICE comes the news that Motorola and Kodak have joined forces with their new 5 megapixel cameraphone, the ZN5.
The Motozine ZN5 is a fully functional Kodak camera, and when you use it, you can automatically download the pictures from the camera to your computer the moment you take them, or, you can save them for later. Once on the computer, you can utilize the Kodak Gallery and all of the Kodak picture functions. 4 gigs of expandable memory give you plenty of room for tons of pictures.
You can also download your pictures to almost any other picture-sharing website. I recommend, naturally, FrameChannel. Of course, you can also store your pictures on the Kodak site, or Picasa, or Flickr, or Google, or, actually, anywhere on the net, and still use FrameChannel to manage them. Once on FrameChannel, or any picture site, your wireless digital picture frame will immediately begin to include the new pictures in its slideshow!
Your Kodak/Motorola camera will upload your pictures to any wireless digital picture frame you tell it to; whether it’s yours in your own living room, or Grandma’s a thousand miles away. How cool is that?
Wifi, Bluetooth, MMS. . . . or a direct Kodak Gallery upload. . . Think of the many options the Motozine ZN5 offers!
This is a Flip Video Ultra by Pure Digital, and I have one!
It’s the simplest and coolest video camera ever, and one of the MANY reasons I adore it is that I can upload videos directly to my wireless digital picture frame.
That’s right. Directly. See that usb flash drive coming out of the side of the camera? That plugs directly into my wireless picture frame, and transfers video just as a regular USB flash drive would upload pictures.
I can also upload the videos directly to my computer, or even to my television! If you’re a person who utilizes YouTube, or any of the social media networks such as FaceBook or MySpace, this is the video camera you’ve been waiting for!
This ultra-cool Ultra Flip camera is about the size of a cell phone and is as light as a feather. I keep mine in my purse. It’s the perfect gift for people who aren’t very tech-savvy because there is really only one main button to push, and it’s very large and smack in the middle of the back of the camera. Push it once to start filming; push it again to stop. Your grandmother could learn to use this camera in less than a minute!
It comes it your choice of five cool colors. Mine is orange.
The video quality is quite good, and the audio is good, too. The Pure Digital Flip Video Ultra camera was never intended to replace your handheld video camera, but for those small things that come up suddenly, this little camera is IDEAL. It will hold about an hour’s worth of videos.
I LOVE IT that I can shoot a little film, flick the switch on the side of the camera with my fingernail, and immediately plug the USB flash drive into my wireless/digital picture frame. This would, of course, work with both wireless AND digital frames.
It’s more electronic magic, and more ways to use your wireless/digital photo frame. It’s AWESOME.
WalMart has the Flip Video Ultra for $160.00, but you can order it directly from the Flip Video Store for $149.99. However, the best deal on this camera that I’ve found, so far, is WalMart.com, where you can order the Flip Ultra for only $129.84, with 97-cent delivery!
This camera is cute. It’s tiny. It’s light-weight. It’s reliable. It’s tough. It takes clear, bright videos with clear, bright sound. It fits in a purse or pocket.
And, it’s inexpensive and easy to use. What more could you ask?
Oh, did I mention that it uses standard AA batteries? And that those batteries last a long time?

I’m on a little vacation, and my husband is still working. I could be sending him post cards, of course; they’re only a quarter apiece and they have beautiful scenery on them.
But why send someone else’s picture when I can send him the pictures I take, myself! I’m taking pictures like mad, and adding them to my FrameChannel account the minute I get back to the house, so my husband sees exactly where I’ve been and what I’ve seen, and many of the pictures have my brother, sister-in-law, nephews, and ME in them, to make them far more personal than a purchased post card with a picture taken by a stranger.
When he gets home from teaching calculus to high school students all day, he can sit back in his comfy chair and see, sometimes just a few minutes after it really happened, exactly what I’m doing!
Next time, I’m borrowing his Eye-fi card!
