Question

After taking the shots, how do I go about editing them using an HD camera?

Community Answer

The best thing to do would be to upload them to a computer first. (There will probably be a cord that came with the camera which can be used to attach the camera to the computer.) You can then edit them using an app like VSCO or Mextures. These apps are usually on phones, but could probably be found on an iMac or Apple computer -- if not, similar apps will be available. The apps are really simple, giving you the ability to change your exposure, shadows, highlights, and other things as well. Photoshop is another program that you can use to edit with, but it can be pricey.

Question

Can the camera print the pictures?

Community Answer

It can if it's a polaroid-based digital camera. They usually have to have paper put into the base to be able to print the pictures. Most digital cameras have a USB that you can plug into your computer where you can edit and print your pictures from the files page, or you can use a photo editor such as Photoshop and print from there.

What is a shutterstock?

Community Answer

It is a company that has stock photos, video, music, etc. Basically you can use them as part of your video, assuming it falls within the scope of a royalty free.

What does the battery look like?

That depends on which camera you use. Some use AAs, others use AAAs, and some use lithium ion batteries which can differ from each camera.

Question

How do I transfer pictures from a Sony camera to a computer?

Community Answer

The camera should have come with a transfer cord; if you can't find that, remove the SD card and slide it into your computer's SD card slot.
