Many programs can do that including Photostory 3 ,free with windows.....but Proshow Gold is hard to beat.

Hi,
When using a Mac running OSX, you have iphoto, a great program. You can do slide show or make a QuickTime movie, all with any music that you choose. Also is a nice photo library and simple post processing aplication. Will also automatically downsize your photos for email with one click !! I LOVE IT:!:

I've tried a handful of apps for this, and settled on MemoriesOnTV. It has everything I need, including pan-and-scan, aka "Ken Burns effect", sync to audio, real DVD burning, and photos and videos can be used on the same shows.

Mind you, I clean up and crop the photos in Photoshop first, then I edit the music in Sound Forge, and only then do I work in MemoriesOnTV. In other words, MOTV is used only for creating the storyboard for the slide show, not for editing anything.

My one tip for slideshows, and beginners tend to make this mistake a lot, is keep your transitions simple. Most of my presentations only use fades. Fancy transitions are distracting, and take away from the beautiful photos you're trying to share.

Also, if you're doing a presentation on a person, for graduation, wedding, etc, you can also use FantaMorph to morph a series of photos, say from baby to adult, and incorporate that short video into your slide show. They usually eat this stuff up.
