How do I easily connect GoPro to MacBook Air for video transfers?

Hey,


Been struggling a bit with moving videos from my GoPro to my Mac. Tried a few methods but nothing feels quick or easy enough, especially after a long day of filming. I just want something that keeps the quality.


Anyone got a go-to method that works well for them? Would really appreciate any tips or tricks!


Thanks!

I agree with woodmeister50. Take the SD card out of the GoPro and load it to your Mac. You may need an SD card reader. They're cheap.
