    5 out of 5 stars How to get the best pictures on this device   December 22, 2007

    This works well but you must optimize your photos or they will look horrid.

    You do not have to go to the lengths I did but I got really crisp images that are easy to see as my result.

    If you have Photoshop Elements or something similar you can do this easily.

    Here is what I did in Photoshop CS3 -
    I took the full version and went to Image--> Image Size to change it from 2000 pixels wide .
    to 1000. I did this again from 1000 to 600 (yes, there is a reason to not go from 2000 to 600 in one shot).

    I then adjusted the photo (try Auto Levels if your program supports it. You might also want to adjust the contrast up a bit). To make the person stand out better in such a tiny display I "painted" the background darker.

    I then sized it down from 600 to 400 and 400 to 200. I set my crop tool to be 96px wide and 64px tall.

    All images should be landscape (Portrait orientation gets cropped) so some were rotated 90 degrees counter-clock wise.

    I saved the file under a different name (DO NOT forget to do that) and used a_name.jpg, b_name.jpg as my naming convention to control the order of the shots in the display.

    The end result was really cute! I ended up getting one for myself.

    Have fun with it.



    4 out of 5 stars Works well, easy to use, but small display   August 8, 2007

    We bought this keychain in a bundle pack with a digital camera. It is very user-friendly for loading photos and operating in general. Since it has a limited memory capacity, I resized all of my photos into very small file sizes too--fits many more photos this way. However, the display is so small that it's difficult to see the pictures. It works best with close-up shots of your subjects. Any photo with a small subject and a lot of background will be impossible to see on this display. It's also quite bulky on a regular keychain (can't put your keys in your pocket with this thing attached to it!), so I have it clipped to the key fob on my purse instead. Overall it has been fun to play around with, and it has held up well in its use.

    Dead on arrival. No answer at Mustek tech support. Had to return it.


    1 out of 5 stars Great when you get one that works   January 26, 2009

    I purchased the Mustek PF-L100 photo keychain because of the price and the size. I had to return the original to the vendor because the battery would not charge. The replacement I received did charge the battery and is working fine. I had purchased two others from another vendor and neither of them would charge the battery. I had to return these two to Mustek for replacement. The two I received as replacements did not charge the battery either. Mustek has assured me that they are sending me two new units that will be tested before shipping. Like I said, it is a great item if you get one that works.
