I have about 50 songs that I want to change the Genre from "Rock" to "Camp". Is there a way to change just those 50 without changing every song that's Rock Genre to Camp Genre and without doing each one individually or changing all Rock? Thanks.

Several ways:  
Sort by the column for genre and select those that you want to change.  
Then set the genre in the tag panel to the value that you like and press Ctrl-S to save the modification.

Or:  
set a filter with  
%genre% IS Rock  
Press Ctrl-A to select all filtered files  
Proceed in the tag panel as outlined before.
