Photo Slideshow Software Buying Guide

Finding and getting a powerful photo slideshow creation software can be a daunting task considering there are so many to choose from. Without a proper creation software your picture/video slideshow will come out looking boring and bland. While each slideshow creation software will come with its own unique set of features and functions, there are certain things that you should look for when you are purchasing a photo slideshow software. Here are some of the features and things that you should look for when you are purchasing a photo slideshow software.

Importing and Organisation Tools

When you are looking for a photo slideshow software you need to make sure that it includes some function that will help you import your media. Importing photos and videos individually can take a lot of time, and that is why you want to get a photo slideshow software that is capable of automatically importing photos from your computer, and from social networks like Facebook.

Also, a good photo slideshow software will include some sort of tool that will help you organize your media. Each software will be different in the way it manages media, but you should make sure that you can at least organize media by colors, tags, or groups. A software that includes features that can help you organize your media will help you save a lot of time in the long run.

Editing Tools

A photo slideshow software shouldn't just help you gather together your photos and videos into a nice presentation, but it should also help you improve your media. You shouldn't expect for your slideshow software to come equipped with photoshop or a full-blown video editor, but you should definitely make sure that the software comes with some editing capabilities. Photos are almost never perfect, and most likely you're going to want to fix them before you put them in your slideshow. Make sure that the software you are thinking of purchasing can at least add filters, crop, flip, and fix red eye.

Transitions, Effects and Music

Almost every slideshow software comes with transitions and effects, but some software's effects are better than others. Whenever you are looking at a slideshow software make sure to take a look at the quality of the effects and music that is included. Most slideshow software trials include the effects and music, so you can use the trial version to see what they include. Really, you just want to make sure that you aren't being sold low-quality 80s music and effects.

DVD Menus

When looking for a good slideshow software, you should make sure that it has some DVD menu options. Oddly enough, some slideshow software will leave this feature out. While you can definitely live without this feature, it is nice to have. Having a customized DVD menu is like icing on cake, and it really adds an extra layer of awesome to a slideshow as a whole.

Saving and Sharing

When you are looking to get a photo slideshow software you want to make sure that once you finish your presentation that you will be able to export/save it in a wide variety of formats. While you will probably never need to save your slideshow in most formats, it's always good to know that you can export your finished project to any device if you need to. A lot of software's will limit what formats you can output your slideshow in, so you need to keep an eye out for that type of stuff.

Basically, just look for a software that can import and export all the popular media formats.

These are all the features you should look out for when you are buying a photo slideshow software. If it includes most of the above, then it is more than likely a decent photo slideshow software.
