What is the Slideshow ad format?

A slideshow strings together still photos with simple transitions — think smooth fades or cuts between product shots, lifestyle images, or close-ups. Brands use it when they want a polished, gallery-like feel without filming video, often to showcase a collection, highlight different colorways, or build atmosphere with high-quality photography. It's especially common for jewelry, homeware, and beauty brands that already have strong product photography and want something more dynamic than a single static image without the production lift of full motion.
