Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you would like to import movies from your Canon camcorder to your Mac. To ensure you use the proper connection, you may need to refer to the documentation that came with your device. For general information on this process, please refer to the attached article below.
Using a camera with your Mac - Apple Support
Importing movies
If your device records movies, look to see if the device includes a Thunderbolt, FireWire or USB connection or cable you can use to connect it to your Mac. If your camera records to disc or tape, make sure the media you want to import is inserted in your camera. If your device records to a removable card, you can insert the card into a card reader connected to your Mac to import its movies.
If you're using a video camera that also takes photos, the USB connection on your device might only be designed for importing still images. If you can't import your video using USB, check to see if there is a FireWire (sometimes called iLink) or Thunderbolt connection on your camera as well. Some USB devices might require additional software to be recognized by your Mac. Check the documentation that came with your device for more information.
Have a great day
