Hi there 244CBH,


As it stands, you can't export photos from your iPhone to an SD card:


You can import content only to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You can't export content to an SD card or digital camera.

You could try transferring the photos from your iPhone to a computer, then export them to an SD card from there. This link provides details: Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone or iPad to your Mac or PC - Apple Support


Take care.
