Free video editing software for a6000?

Apr 29, 2017

I need to make a short video for my church. Not looking to do anything fancy would need to put a bunch of short clips into one video. The ability to write some text as an overlay would be great.

I am using the a6000. And run windows. Is there anything free that is decent?

Also what codec do you guys recommend?

The Sony PlayMemories program will do simple video.

I'm not a Windows guy but I think Movie Maker is free.

Sony's PlayMemories home might offer something as well, though I've never used it.

Windows movie maker.

Davinci resolve is free and AWESOME, but the learning curve is HUGE.

I think there is Openshot for windows as well.

Thanks everyone I will try the various options out. I have used movie maker once before. Open shot looks cool.

Imagine there's a bunch of basic editing apps that will work ok for limited needs.

On the Mac, there's always iMovie (along with Davinci Resolve and others).

However, for those viewing this thread in later months, Avid just announced that they will be releasing a FREE version Media Composer later in 2017! (it'll no doubt have some limitations, but it's by far one of the most dominant editing apps in the industry)
