FIGURE 18-2 Digital picture frames put an always-changing slide show of your digital
images right on a tabletop.
CHAPTER 18: Share Your Pictures 413
Show Pictures on TV
No one likes to admit it, but we all spend the best hours of our lives in the family room within a
stone??™s throw of the television. So while the Web and framed enlargements are two good ways to
show off your pictures, nothing beats watching them on the familiar old television. Heck, I can
even think of a non-couch-potato reason to show your pictures on a TV: it??™s the biggest screen in
the house, so everyone can see your photos without craning their necks.
Thankfully, showing your digital images on television is easy. Most digital cameras have
video-out ports built right in that can directly display the contents of your camera??™s memory
card on a TV screen. Don??™t lose the video cable that comes with your camera, though; one end
is a standard RCA jack for connecting to the video-in port of a TV or VCR, but the other end is
a specialized connector for your camera. It??™s expensive to replace and is only available from the
camera manufacturer.
