Transfer Video from an SD card from a Sony camera please ?

The iPad does not transfer the videos on the SD card.

I cannot see them.

Worse there is a Community thread but I can read neither the full questions (my query has been raised before) nor anyone’s answers !!

Is this a secret society ?

Start here:

Connect external storage devices to iPad - Apple Support


Direct import of photos from your camera SD Card to your Photo library is possible - subject to a couple of caveats:

  • the SD Card must be correctly formatted as FAT, FAT32 or exFAT (FAT64)
  • stored photos are stored within the expected DCIM folder


Import photos using Apple camera adapters - Apple Support



If you are unable to use the direct photo import feature, you can still manually access and copy photos from the SD Card using the iPad’s built-in Files App. To do so, just open the Files App - and in the Sidebar you will see your SD Card in the list of Locations. If necessary, open the sidebar by tapping the sidebar icon at top-left of the Files App Window. Photos can be copied to the iPad Photo Library, or copied to a folder of your choice either on your iPad or elsewhere.
