View the High Resolution photos you clicked from your new Digital Camera or mobile on your HD TV
The explosions of cameras everywhere, (mobiles, digiSLRs,
tabs, etc) makes it very easy and handy for us to capture photographs of
the events. A very common problem that I faced in last few days in Mumbai while
attending a family event was about displaying the photos for everyone to see.
Gone are the days when we used to take a print of the photos or develop films.
Everybody wants to see them instantly and the fact that most of the devices
have very small screens doesn't help. I just found out a very efficient, cheap
(practically free if you are using new equipment at home) and least time
consuming of displaying the pics for everyone to see.
This is what you will need,
1.
The device on which you have clicked
the photos. (In most of the cases it is likely to be a digital camera or a cell
phone)
2.
A laptop for transferring the images
from the device. (Again, I assume that the laptop you would be using is not
more than 3 years old and that means it has an HDMI port)
3.
A modern TV set. By modern I mean
not more than 3 years old (approx. again), flat screen set.
4.
A modern set top box. The box has to
be an HD one. This could be from any company, what matters is the HD portion.
5.
If a HD set top box is not available
you will have to purchase an HDMI cable.
A brief introduction of HDMI is given below for the
uninitiated :-
HDMI (High-Definition
Multimedia Interface) is a compact audio/video interface for transferring uncompressed video
data and compressed/uncompressed digital audio data from
a HDMI-compliant device ("the source device") to a compatible computer monitor,
video projector, digital television,
or digital audio device.[1] HDMI is a digital replacement for
existing analog video
standards.
