Info updated on:

Slideshow Magic allows users to create on-screen video presentations based on their photo collection. The utility includes many popular features among slideshow software like transition effects, the addition of audio tracks, custom text or colors. Output is available under QuickTime's MOV format.

I found Slideshow Magic to be compatible with different image formats: TIFF, BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG and even PDF (there is no mention of the formats support in the help files). To each individual slide you may assign a transition effect and duration, audio track as well as title. Images can be rotated in order to align them with the rest of the slides (but only by 90 degrees on either side).

In terms of global slideshow settings, users can specify a default transition and duration that will be used for all images along with soundtrack and sound codec. The program's interface makes it very easy to work with; all images are displayed in a list view that is simple to navigate through.

By saving a slideshow as a project file, you may build new slideshows without having to go through the customization process again.

Slideshow Magic is a tool designed for all users; it offers flexible settings within an intuitive layout. The application provides a simple and effective way of preserving and showcasing photographs through slideshows.

The application is rather good, although it can't completely replace iPhoto. It can be regarded as a kind of additional software to it since it provides you with a variety of effects as well as audio and captions for each slide.
