Compact, cheap and easy to use, digital cameras are perfect for recording all the precious moments in life. But if you tend to leave your photos on the hard drive, then Ashampoo have a better idea: their latest Slideshow Studio 2010 makes it easy to convert them into stylish video slideshows that are perfect for sharing with friends and family.
The program couldn't be much easier to use. Just drag and drop the images you'd like to share onto the program, click the "Produce slideshow" button and it'll generate a video for you (WMV format). Send this to someone and anyone who double-clicks it will see each image for the default 10 seconds, before a clever dissolve, fade, spin or other transition effect moves you on to the next.
If you need more control, though, there are plenty of ways to customise the results. You're able to drag and drop images around in the timeline, for instance, to produce the sequence you need. Individual slides can be customised with subtitles, shaped text, even themed graphics, perhaps adding cartoon balloon logos for shots of your kids first birthday. For a really professional feel you can even add a soundtrack of multiple MP3 files, then have the slideshow automatically adjust to their total length in a single click. If you've photos you'd like to share then this really is a great way to do it.
