High-Def Holidays: Photodex® Releases ProShow® Gold 3.5 with New Blu-ray Output for Upcoming Holiday Season

ProShow is the world's first dedicated slide show software to produce Blu-ray output, giving users the power to display their family photos in true HD.

Austin, TX (PRWEB) September 18, 2008 -- Photodex Corporation (www.photodex.com) today announced the release of ProShow Gold 3.5, the latest version of its award-winning slide show software designed for consumers and photo hobbyists. ProShow Gold 3.5 gives users the ability to create high resolution Blu-ray slide shows from start to finish. No complicated formatting or conversions - users simply create a slide show in ProShow Gold and output directly to Blu-ray.

"Offering Blu-ray support to our customers was a huge priority considering there are already 40 million U.S. households who currently own an HDTV, a number anticipated to increase substantially this holiday season", said Paul Schmidt, President of Photodex Corporation. "If you've ever seen a Blu-ray movie you know first-hand the image quality is far superior to standard DVD. Consumers want to utilize this new technology to display their photos and videos in crystal clear quality."

ProShow Gold's new Blu-ray support gives users the power to display their most treasured photos and videos in full 1080p high definition on their HDTVs. Family photos, wedding memories, and holiday snapshots are suddenly more detailed and colors are more vivid than ever before.

Most cameras take photos at HD resolutions, meaning users don't need special content to create a Blu-ray slide show. They are likely already sitting on hundreds of photos that haven't been shown at their true potential. With prices for Blu-ray hardware becoming more affordable, ProShow Gold adds the final piece to bring HD slide shows to life.

Pricing and Availability

ProShow Gold 3.5 is available immediately from www.photodex.com for $69.95. Upgrades can be purchased from $44.95. A free 15-day trial version of the software is available for download at www.photodex.com.
