Please know that there has been some issues importing videos onto the ipad for the last few updates. It used to work all the time, and I have some older SD cards that I can import videos off of, but not my newer ones. I suspect it’s a SDXC or SDHC issue, but I’m not sure. So if the videos don’t work right there may not be anything you can do since it’s a systemic issue with Apple.
You can also use dropbox or some other service to get hte files off the ipad, that said, you will need a computer on the other end to receive the files and get them onto a card.
There are some special USB/Lightning flash drives that - with a companion app - can be used for file transfers. Kingston WiDrive is one such device, and there are others. They’re not perfect and often take some tweaking since the iPad lacks a file manager. You’d need to do some googling and research to see what ones look like a good fit for your needs and budget
