Sony Cybershot Camera - How Do I Edit Videos Please?

On my recent hols I decided to use my very small and a few years old Sony minicamera to shoot videos rather than take photos as both options are available. Before I went on hols I checked with Sony and they said that this model should only best use a maximum of a 32GB sd card to ensure a good clear video in HD. So I bought five 32gb cards and over the week I managed to get abot 30mins from each card. Now, I am new to videoing with a camera and as I went videoed a scene each time I finished a sequence of shots I stopped it and then restarted it as there is no actual pause just on/off.

I have transferred all of the five sd cards successfully to my PC (after having viewed them at the time in camera to see they worked!) My problem is this as a newbie......

On my PC I now have quite a few individual 'files'  some very short and some longer which I want to play either in that order or another order as one continuous 'movie' but I have to go into each one every time! Is there a simple way to do this please? I know I can make a slide show for my photos but cannot do this for videos.

Thanks all you experts

Adobe's free online service is well rated by many people:

Otherwise you'll need some video-editing software:

Clipchamp, Da Vinci Resolve, and CapCut will all accomplish this for free. CapCut is best-liked among newbies.

Have downloaded Capcut which seemed to be for a beginner like me (I am in my 80s) and managed to get so far - first I found 3 videos in my docs which I did one ofter another on my hols and I managed to move them one by one as instructed to bottom of the Capcut page and then position them in order on after another, I then played them in Capcut and there they were all joined together - brilliant! but........I cannot find how to then move this joined up sequence back in my docs.

Any ideas how to do that as once I have them in my docs I can save them permanently

Thanks

Give your video a title and use the 'Export to' option to determine where it will end up.

While you're free to change any of the settings under 'Video 'Exporting'', you can probably just stick with the default options.

There are other options available to you by scrolling down but, once again, you probably won't need to bother with them.

Then simply click on the blue 'Export' button.

(Once your video has been exported to your chosen location, you can then copy or move it to anywhere else on your computer, or onto an external drive, in exactly the same way as you can with any other type of file).

Thanks to you both - Buenchico especially thank you for the really good explanation from the point if export which I could not fathom.
