Use iPhoto to burn a disc that you use as a backup or that you plan to use with iPhoto. If you want to burn a disc that you can share with others without iPhoto, don't use iPhotouse the Finder.

First use iPhoto to export the photos to a folder, then burn the folder to a disc using the disc burning feature of Mac OS X.

Or drag a group of photos or a film roll icon from the iPhoto Preview pane to the Desktop (or anywhere on your hard disk). Then burn the album to a disc using Mac OS X's disc burning feature.
