How to edit movies on the EOS 60D.

Solution

With your camera, you can edit out the first and last scenes of a movie in 1-sec. increments. You can select [Overwrite] to save and overwrite the original movie, or [New file] to save the movie as a new movie. This operation is carried on the movie playback screen.

1. Flip out the LCD monitor, and then set the power switch to <ON>.

For the details about how to open the LCD monitor, see .

2. Press the < > to display the image.

3. Press the <Multi-controller> to select the image.

  • During the single-image display, the [ ] icon displayed on the upper left indicates that it is a movie.
  • During the index display, the perforation on the left edge of the image indicates that it is a movie. Movies cannot be played on the index display, so press the <SET> button to switch to the single-image display.

4. On the single-image display, press the <SET> button.

The movie playback panel will appear on the bottom.

5. Press the <Multi-controller> to select [ ], then press the <SET> button.

The editing screen will be displayed.

6. Specify the parts to be edited out.

6-1. Press the <Multi-controller> to select either [ ] (Cut beginning) or [ ] (Cut end), then press the <SET> button.

6-2. Press the <Multi-controller> key to fast forward or turn the <Quick Control Dial> (next frame) to specify the part to be edited out, then press the <SET> button.

  • After deciding which part to edit out, press the <SET> button.
  • The portion highlighted in blue on the top of the screen is what will remain.
  • Since the editing is done in 1-sec. increments (position indicated by [ ]), the exact position where the movie is edited may differ slightly from the position you specified.

7. Check the editing.

  • Press the <Multi-controller> key to select [ ], and then press the <SET> button to playback the portion highlighted in blue.
  • To change the editing, go back to step 6.
  • To cancel the editing, select [ ] and press the <SET> button.

8. Press the <Multi-controller> key to select [ ], then press the <SET> button to save the movie. The save screen will appear.

To save it as a new movie, select [New file]. Or to save it and overwrite the original movie file, select [Overwrite]. Then press the <SET> button.

Note:

If the card does not have enough space to save the movie, only [Overwrite] can be selected.
