    Well, the photography has to stay out of the way of the jewelry.

    I think we say "slides" when we mean: 

    actual slides or digital images transported to the people running
    the jury, either by mailing a CD, or uploading to a server... 

    See? It's easier to say slides. 

    Our language is full of old terms. Like the old printing terms widows
    and orphans that come from moveable type, that may still be used in
    graphic design. (I'm sure there's a better example of that, but
    that's all I've got at the moment.
