Editing photos

You can rotate, enhance, remove red-eye, and crop photos. Enhancing improves a photo’s overall darkness or lightness, color saturation, and other qualities.

Rotate

Edit a photo: While viewing a photo in full screen, tap Edit, then choose a tool.

With the red-eye tool, tap each eye to correct it. To crop, drag the corners of the grid, drag the photo to reposition it, then tap Crop. You can also tap Constrain when cropping, to set a specific ratio.

Trimming videos

You can trim the frames from the beginning and end of a video that you just recorded, or from any other video in your Camera Roll album. You can replace the original video, or save the trimmed version as a new video clip.

Trim a video: While viewing a video, tap the screen to display the controls. Drag either end of the frame viewer at the top of the video, then tap Trim.

Important: If you choose Trim Original, the trimmed frames are permanently deleted from the original video. If you choose “Save as New Clip,” a new trimmed video clip is saved in your Camera Roll album and the original video is unaffected.

Uploading photos and videos to your computer

You can upload the photos and videos you take with Camera to photo applications on your computer, such as iPhoto on a Mac.

Upload photos and videos to your computer: Connect iPod touch to your computer using the Dock Connector to USB Cable.

ÂÂ Mac: Select the photos and videos you want, then click the Import or Download button in iPhoto or other supported photo application on your computer.

ÂÂ PC: Follow the instructions that came with your photo application.

If you delete the photos and videos from iPod touch when you upload them to your computer, they’re removed from your Camera Roll album. You can use the Photos settings pane in iTunes to sync photos and videos to the Photos app on iPod touch (videos can be synced only with a Mac). See “Syncing with iTunes” on page 17.
