what is everybody using?
 

I am looking for a program to edit and make videos with music. I hear a lot of people using Photoshop is it a good program to use? and can you make slideshows with music on it? I just bought a canon T1I and took over 1000 pictures at Powell last week and would love to make a video to music.

Are you on a MAC or PC? What's your budget? That will help narrow down your options.

If you're asking if Photoshop is a good program then you probably don't need it.. plus you don't use it to edit videos.


PC
-------------------
Windows Movie Maker - Entry Level Video Editing
Premiere Elements - Entry Level Video Editing
Lightroom - Photo Editing (allows you to export photo album with music)
Sony Vegas - Intermediate/Advanced Video Editing
Premiere Pro - Advanced Video Editing



MAC
--------------------
Final Cut Express - Entry Level Video Editing
Aperture - Photo Editing (I believe you can do some video editing in here, but it's primarily for photos)
Final Cut Pro - Advanced Editing

Aperture 3 is set up to do exactly what you want check this out:
