Cons

"Excellent - all the features you need for stop motion"
Version: AnimatorDV Simple 9.02
Pros
Plenty of features, doesn't make you run through a 'file save' dialogue after every frame like some of its competitors. Onion skinning is a terrific feature.
Cons
It only takes video from a live feed (like a webcam) - it can't open saved video files, such as the ones created from a digital still camera or a camcorder.
Summary
My wife & I have been making short stop-motion animated videos for several weeks with this. Overall, I would definitely recommend it for others looking to experiment with stop motion, as long as you have a decent webcam.

"Brilliant - for a free program!"
Version: AnimatorDV Simple 9.02
Pros
Does what it says. Creates great time-lapse AVIs.
Cons
None that I have found.
Summary
Downloaded ADV and within minutes I was creating movies of scudding clouds and have been doing so every day since!

"Taken aback by how great this is!"
Version: AnimatorDV Simple 9.02
Pros
Everything!
Cons
I don't thins so.
Summary
This works so well, I can't believe it's freeware! I was just looking for software that would do Time-lapse in a high resolution with my Logitech 9000, everything I was finding was garbage, and cost something, or would kill you with too many features and no proper user interface. Thanks, and now I have Stop Motion as a new hobby!
