PVC: The new iPhone can’t EDIT video
By S Simmons. Filed in The Editblog on PVC |The EDITBLOG on PVC: The iPhone 3G S can’t really EDIT video!
Yes it’s cool and yes it works very well but despite all the stories that say differently, the new iPhone can’t yet actually edit video. It can only trim individual clips. I wrote a little post over on PVC discussing just that along with a few video samples from the phone just to see what the quality is like. Pretty good.
It’s only a matter of time before the actual video editing applications arrive though … I wonder what will be the first? Are you working on an iPhone video editing application? Let is know in the comments or send an email over.

a “trim” is still, by definition, an edit.
so while the iPhone 3GS CAN edit video, it cannot edit video together.
i’m pretty sure they’ll be some iMovie-ish app in the near future by a third party, if not by apple themselves in some major update.

Naaa I disagree, not in terms of moving picture editing. If you can’t join 2 clips together you can’t create an edit! Now you can add an edit to a clip and then trim the head or tail of that clip, then you’ve made an edit and an edit!
