WellcomeMat pulls the matt from under Slideshows

I’m a huge fan of video as you know.

I received an email from Christian Sterner today letting me know that slide shows would no longer be allowed on their site.

What he was talking about is taking still pictures and making the field of view move or pan as in with RealEstateShows .

Here’s an example of a RES Slideshow:

Here’s the email Christian sent:

There are two kinds of slide show companies out there: those that don’t claim to be video solutions (such as Real Estate Shows ) and those that demonstrate a very strong need to blur the lines between true video and slide shows. Make no mistake: videos are shot with a video camera (or a digital still camera that shoots videos), they are recorded in 30 frames per second (or some variation) and WellcomeMat has always been exclusively focused on being the platform for those using video for professional purposes.

I’m following along with the polarized comments on their blog: http://www.wellcomemat.com/its-official-no-more-slide-shows-on-wellcomemat/thehood/612.html

I know how I feel – but what do you think?
