I videoed an event (for church) and my wife used my D60 and took the stills, she took over 200 shots. "They" wanted a slide show to be presented the next day. I loaded the shots into iPhoto like always and poked around and found a function I never saw before, it can export the slide show into Quicktime automatically, even with the Ken Burns effect! Very slick. BTW, I still want to see your new shots!! ;-) I too had to put a slide show together recently.
