I took a video of zebras crossing the road. I saw it once on the camera and cannot find it now. Need help locating so I can transfer to phone

Hi:

I went back and found out to your previous posts that you are apparently using a Canon R6 camera - if you are starting a thread it is a good idea to place information on your gear in your initial post.  The bet solution is to shut the camera down, remove the card from the camera and insert your card into a card reader attached to your computer and use the file manager of the computer to look for the files on the drive.   Still images will appear as CR3 or JPG files so they are not your video files, most likely you are looking for MP4 files.

Thank you for the suggestions. I will try it and will also include my camera model when posting questions

marylou1660,

I think the R6 has dual card slots, doesn't it?

Are you sure you're looking on the right card?

Good point Steve.   If the OP is seeking the videos on her camera (which is not stated) would the camera automatically go to the correct card?  I would hope so...
