Q: How do I import my Canon EOS M 18.0 m camera into iMovie?

I am aware that I have to put my camera into VTR mode in order for iMovie to recognize it but I do not see this setting on my camera. Help please!

iMovie '11, iOS 8.3

    Hi ThisisHootspa,

     

    If you are having issues with iMovie not recognizing your camera, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful (apologies if you have already seen it):

     

    iMovie: Can't see or control camera or camcorder - Apple Support

     

    Regarding VTR mode, note that not all cameras use the same terminology:

     

    • Some cameras need to be set to "VTR", "VCR", or "DV" mode in order to communicate with a computer. Check your camera's documentation for information on how to set your camera to this mode if needed.

     

    Regards,
