Proshow Producer contains a few more features but costs more than five times the price. In my opinion, 99% of the people will not use those features. If you are prepared to pay, then go for it by all means.

Currently, I am using Adobe Premiere and it's good enough for me, and it is available at major IT shops. Can tell me the good things about Proshow software?

There are entirely different programmes. Adobe Premiere is for editing movie whereas Proshow Gold is simply an application for creating a DVD or CDR slide show from your photos.

Nowadays, many applications are purchased online. Proshow Gold is not a big application (about 13 MB) and if you have broadband connection, downloading it takes only a minute or two. After that, you can store it or copy it to anywhere you like including CD if you wish. I have bought a number of software via downloading and never ever experienced any problem.

It is not one of those programmes that require an annual subscription like anti-virus etc. This is therefore a one time purchase only.

Great thanks.

Anyone can share the learning curve for this software? How fast can one prepare a show with this app?

Hi David, thank you for the information, what i mean is currently I am using Adobe Photoshop elements. Which one is better?

But according to the website, the Proshow Producer will maintain the colors but the Proshow Gold doesn't is it? Hope I didn't misinterpret it... :embrass:

Anyway, has anyone seen the Sony one at Sitex? It looks impressive... But if you buy all the add-ons it will add up to a few hundred $.
