You can import digital media from a camera into Windows Movie Maker, but only if it is in a compatible format for the program:

Video formats for Windows Movie Maker:

.asf, .avi, .dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, .wmv

Camera video is usually in .MOV format (or other file name extension) which is not compatible with Windows Movie Maker. If your camera media is not one of the formats listed above, then you will need to convert the file before it can be imported/edited in Windows Movie Maker.

Free video converters are available online. Simply google: free video converters and download one.

Then open the converter program. Locate and Add the camera file to the conversion list. Select your 'Output Source' format (one of those listed) and choose an Output Path (destination to save the new converted file in). Click Convert.

If the conversion is successful, you will be able to import and edit the media in Windows Movie Maker.
