Slideshow Software for time lapse ???

I've gotten into time lapse and enjoy it, but think I need software that will upload 300-600 individual pictures easy and quickly. Do you know of such software?

What do you mean by upload? To the web or to make a video? I don't think Premiere Elements 12 would have a problem, I regularly do hour long DVD slideshows in it that are about 500 images. And you can export out to many formats suitable for the web or other purposes besides mastering DVDs.

Upload was probably the wrong term. Move from a folder to the program as a group of pictures to make a movie is more accurate . I did not think of premiere. I have one movie program but have to move each picture one by one and that takes too long.

I use StarTrails and PowerDirector. Eather one will do video but PD is a better video editor. Check out my Flickr Page (link above). Star Trails made the red dome photo combining about 60 photos.
lightRoom will do video of time lapse as well

it's been a few years but I just used Windows Movie Maker. Import all the images (you can select them all at once), set the slide duration to something fast like .1 which would give you 10 frames per second and then watch the movie.

Use ProShow Gold then change one transition and make it affect all the transitions and choose something like 0.10 seconds and see how it looks and then just tweak the transition times until it looks like you want it to look.

I use Quick Time Pro to process the final TL video.
It just takes the images from the hard drive.

I use QuickTime Pro, which you have to buy. It's the program generally recommended in time lapse tutorials. I believe there are free programs that will also work with hundreds of images to make a movie.
EDITED: Look here for free time lapse software.

You can drop a whole folder of pictures into Premiere Elements 12 or highlight just the ones you want and copy or drag and drop them in as well. You can then set a global time for slide duration or tweak each one individually if you want.

Thanks for all the wisdom, all sound as if they would work. Since I plan to do this more than once, I may try several of the suggestions. I did watch a tutorial on using Lightroom 5 for this and I will probably try it with the first one.
I took 523 pictures with my SX50, using Triggertrap. I know I have a lot to learn and like just playing with it.

I had an earlier version of pro show, it did not work on macs. Has that changed?
