Taking Video

Recording video is much the same as taking a still photo. Put the Droid 2 into Camera mode, tap the screen, and then tap the icon to switch to Camcorder mode. (Repeat the steps but tap the icon to switch back to the camera.)

To start recording, hold down the Camera key all the way, or tap the red button, and you’re recording video. The red button turns into a gray square. To stop recording, press the square. To record without sound, press the Mute button, and to turn sound back on, tap it again.

There are some differences between taking still photos and recording videos. With video:

Note

The effects you can apply to your videos are exactly the same ones that you can apply to still photos.

To edit your videos, you’ll have to head back into the Gallery. Open the video you want to edit, press the Menu key, and then select Edit→“Advanced editing”, and you can edit your video by doing things such as cutting any dead air at the beginning or end of the video, adding a title, removing the audio track, and so on.
