"Best program I have found for presentations"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.7.2
Pros
Very easy to use. Makes your photos pop out and when combined with sound makes a spectacular movie
Cons
there is a learning curve to use all its functions
-
"Best way to show your digital pics"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.7.0.3
Pros
I use this program to create a show of my still photography. It will quickly turn your pics into a quality show with the music of your choice. I also use it to add stills to my camcorder movies.
Cons
Occasionally new versions will be a bit buggy, but the programmer responds to email and a new version generally appears within 36 hours.

"Useful for short clips but not for anything longer"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.5.6.3
Pros
Very good control over motion, much better than Final Cut or iMovie for photo manipulation
Cons
The timeline photos are just too small to be usable.
Non scrolling timeline, can't drag and drop photos into a new location off screen.
The photo organizer lets you locate duplicate photos, but not delete them. Deletion is difficult in many views.Summary
The rendered quality of the final product is quite good. This app is useful to produce short clips to import into Final Cut or iMovie but not good for anything longer than a few photos. The inability to zoom the photo size in timeline and inability to drag and drop photos off screen makes it impractical for any longer projects.
Thsisreview is actually of 4.6.0.12, but applies to older versions as well.

"Full Screen Toggle is Buggy"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.5.4
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I tried Photo to Movie 4.5.4 and found that although it seems to be generally a useful product, the full screen toggle is a buggy mess. It is SLOOOOW, poorly designed and BUGGY!
The full screen toggle is Command-G, ignoring the Mac OS X standard of Command-F. Neither Command-G nor Command-F work once the application is already in full screen mode. instead, you must use the stop (play) option from the controller dialog box. It does not respond to the Command-G as listed if you wish to exit it. Instead, you must use the stop/pause button from the little grey controller dialog.
This is not good because it bungs up your attempts to stop/pause the action. This is DUMB!

"No warning on upgrade cost"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.5.2
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I paid for an upgrade to 4.1. One generally doesn't expect a charge half way though a version but there's another one for 4.5.
What really p..... me off is no warning on the auto download that this is a paid upgrade. Had the choice been there I wouldn't have upgraded until I felt I needed to and I guess I would still be in the LQ Graphics loop. But the feeling I have is one of being gouged, so I'm trashing Photo to Movie. -
"Unbelievable crashbox"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.5.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Besides not pointing out any feature additions, this is a $30 upgrade from the last version. Would have been nice if they mentioned that BEFORE I downloaded it.
And what difference between the two. This is without a doubt, the buggiest POS ever released by LQ. I can't believe how many ways it will hang the Mac. My favorite is trying to run a PtM project made in v4.2.7. *BAM* Then there's the crashing Play button at the top. *BAM* Then there there's the cursor permanently attached to the GUI. *BAM* Then there's the inability to Quit...or the 5 minute wait til Force Quit takes effect. Holy Toledo, is this a bad build!
Save your money and steer clear of this "upgrade" til LQ makes some SERIOUS coding changes. This is nowhere near ready for prime time. -
"Good product."
Version: Photo to Movie 4.2.5
Pros
Complex effects
Cons
Complex operation.
Summary
A sofisticate produto to sofisticate job.

"Stable useful program for creating captivating..."
Version: Photo to Movie 4.2.0
Summary
...shows from photos
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I've used this program to create slide shows (although they run more like movies) for special occasions. For my wife's 50th, I collected her old photos and our family photos and put together a great set of programs for her party. Late into the night, I put on a simple review of the best photos set to music and, honestly attendees, young and old, simply sat down and watched the program for quite a long time, laughing at times and clapping at others. It was really magical. The program is very simple to use and get great, professional results. -

"WAY too expensive!"
Version: Photo to Movie 4.1.6
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I have paid for this, along with additional upgrades. The developer charges far too much, and upgrades keep costing more and more money!
GraphicConverter is a much better value.
