Honeycam 4.19

Honeycam 是 Bandisoft 推出的動態圖片製作工具，主要解決「快速把畫面變成 GIF/WebP/WebM」的需求。它可以直接錄下電腦螢幕、YouTube 影片或播放器畫面，也能匯入相機連拍的一系列照片來合成動態圖，甚至開啟別人做好的 GIF 再編輯加工。這套軟體在台灣討論度不算特別高，但開發商 Bandisoft 本身就是知名壓縮軟體 Bandizip 的團隊，維護相當穩定，近一年內仍持續更新，評價普遍不錯。

如果你常需要做教學步驟、社群貼文或論壇回覆用的短動圖，Honeycam 會比開 Photoshop 來得輕量直覺。它與 Photoshop 這類專業影像軟體的取捨在於：功能單純、上手門檻低，但沒有進階的圖層或濾鏡編輯能力。要注意的是它只有英文介面、僅支援 Windows，且是試用版授權，長期使用需付費；若你只需要偶爾轉檔，免安裝的線上工具或許更省事，但錄製與編輯的流暢度就不如這套。

Honeycam is the best animated GIF maker and editor software. The tool allows users to capture their computer screen, YouTube videos, or media players and save them as animated GIF/WebP/WebM image files.

Users can create an animated image by using the recording function or the importing function of the program, which allows users to import a series of pictures (JPG, PNG, etc.) taken through a camera's burst mode (continuous shooting mode).

Users can also open existing animated image files (GIF, WebP, etc.) created by other programs and edit them to make their own animated images.
