Slideshow - how fast? Truly random? What speeds can the slideshow be set at?

I think it has 5 second, 10 second, 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 1 hr and 24 hour options. Random setting appears to be truly random.

No, I returned mine cause the quality was not good, and I was just looking for projecting a slideshow for my parents Ann. Thankfully a friend was able to let me borrow one from their work!

I've only done old Kodak slides. It can take as long as 10 mins or as little as 30 secs depending on the setting.

You can set the synch speed at 1/125 and you should be fine. Also check your curtain on the camera. Sometimes people have the curtain set to the beginning of the flash and some at the end. Experiment tithe that if the 1/125 is problematic. A fast shutter isn't really necessary.

The order would be like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Random order would be like 2, 5, 3, 1, 4, etc. When the pictures flash in order, you know exactly which picture will flash next. When in random order, you will never know which picture flashes next. They will always be in a different order. I hope this helps.

I believe you are talking about the old picture slides, and the answer is no. It is used with a computer and programs such as powerpoint. It can also project whatever you are viewing on your computer. However, it is not able to do individual slides.

I saw the same thing, I'm sure if you play around with the settings a little bit you will be able to figure it out, otherwise it will have lots of short 5 minute videos

Sorry, I only use the video function for my business. I've never used the slideshow function.

there are several settings you have to choose from. Make sure you have set for slides.

I've only used it twice that way and had no problem. It was saved as a power point slide show. I don't know about one not saved to go straight to slide show. I've used several through the computer and had no problem.

I loaded all of my pictures on a memory card, insterted the memory card and the slide show is supposed to start automatically. I don't know that there is an option to set up shows of specific pictures, mine shows all 120 pictures, then starts over again.

It has a random function in the setup preferences, but since I only got the frame this evening, I'm not sure how "random" is "random". I've had four digital picture frames in the past, and the "random" was the same every day. In the past, other digital picture frames might play picture 10, 70, 100, 220, and 62. The next day, when I turned on the picture frame, it would randomly play picture 10, 70, 100, 220, and 62. It was random - but it was the same random every day. P.S. I've tested it several times, and each time it starts up, it displays the same FIRST picture, but then all subsequent pictures truly are random. So I'd say the random function truly is random.

You use the button on the projector. I've learned that you have to be careful with what I put in a PowerPoint. I always double check my slides on the projector to make sure they all work correctly. Also fancy animations don't work.

I don't use it often. I use it for work sometimes to have a slide show of my products. I can't remember the fastest and slowest but you CAN control it. You have a choice as well between having it end at the last picture, or continue to loop around. You can also set it to randomly choose pictures or if to keep it in the order that you have it on the memory card. It's very simple and nice to use. I wish all electronics were so simple.

The frame will shuffle the pictures randomly if you want and you can choose the amount of time in between picture changes. I find the pictures are quite clear and the frame is large enough that you can see the pictures from across a room (within reason on the size of the room). If you have photos where you did a lot of cropping down the size or that already had poor resolution, those won;t look good on the frame, but you can easilt delete them if you find one. Otherwise all of our pictures looked great! I think there were increments of 5 or 10, so the picture changes every 5 seconds or ten seconds, or 20 seconds etc, whichever you choose. I hope this helps!

I've just used it for slide scanning, and it's a manual, one at a time operation, but it goes remarkably fast. I literally had hundreds of slides and I was surprised at how quickly I was able to scan them once I got in a rhythm.

The scanner does not have an automatic advance for slides or film, rather you put the content into the carriage, then insert it to the scanner and each advance is manual. Once you get your settings for scanning set, save them and reload the settings each session. You can simply advance the carriage to each image then click the 'scan' button. It's pretty quick. Your sessions can be for whatever film or negative you have. For thousands of slides, you're going to want to be patient. Scanning takes 30 seconds or so per frame, depending on the dpi you choose, but this is nowhere close to a 'thousand slides in an evening' proposition...
