Exploring movie playback

Video is appear in my playback system alongside stills, but where stills fill my entire LCD, and have my exposure settings up here, videos are a 16x9 aspect ratio, they've got a duration up in the corner, and they have this little movie camera icon. Right next to it is an icon for the Set button, indicating that if I hit the Set button, I get here to my movie playback controls. I can step through them, the different controls, using the quick control dial. If I just put it on the play button, and hit the Set button my video will play. I can then bring the controls back up again, which pauses. I can step through in slow motion. I can jump to the first frame, which is basically rewind. I can step through one frame at a time, or jump to the last frame. I even have editing capabilities. I can trim clips. Needless to say, editing video on a little three inch LCD screen with dubious controls is not the best idea. You're probably going to want to stick to your computer for serious editing…
