Good Video Editing Software - KCSR

Billy Mild · 2015-01-25, 10:48 AM

I am noob to this whole action camera stuff. I have 2 cameras that I would like to edit the footage from. I have seen some talk of the GoPro software, but my camera's aren't GoPro's. I know adobe premiere exists, but that is probably overkill for the kind of footage I will be shooting.

How do you edit your footage from the gopro/action camera? I would like it to be free if possible or on the cheaper end since I'm not a professional.

I use premiere, but I do photo and video professionally. It's actually pretty easy to use and you can get a free trial from Adobe : https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/premiere

If you have an Apple, use iMovie (though it's a pain). If you have windows, use Windows Movie Maker (pretty decent program, for basic functionality, actually).

Don't buy anything unless you need added functionality.

GoPro editing software all you do is drag and drop the video in it so you could in theory use it.
