Cannot Import Video from Sony DSC-HX200V camera into Photos with Ventura

Hi there, Yes, I can use Import Media to import the AVC file into iMovie.

I am not able to import the movies into Photos. I see three disk names when I attach the USB cable to my camera. Two disk files are called No Name, one of which has the photos stored in a subfolder. On that same No Name is another folder called Private which has a file called AVCHD and is described as AVCHD Collection (there are a few small movies in there).

I can import the movies with no problem into my 11-year-old High Sierra computer.

Is there a way to copy or somehow export the movies from iMovie and over to Photos in Ventura?

Thanks!

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately I have reviewed all your suggestions and I still have no progress with importing movies into Photos here on Ventura. Photos are not a problem, it's the movies that are my concern.

Thanks for your time.

Thank you so much! After spending a while going through camera settings I found the one for MP4 and tried shooting a video with that. Worked fine and now imports into Photos both in Ventura and on the old High Sierra iMac. I had been unaware of the MP4 option until you pointed it out and then found it and changed it over. Also can import into iMovie if needed as well.

I have learned something new and useful today. Always a good thing! Thanks again for your assistance.

Small update. I can see the individual AVC files if I use Quick Time Player; however, I cannot export the AVC movie files from QT, all the options are greyed out.
