Best Method to download video from iPhone?

I have been using my iPhone to shoot video and it's been really great so far as a camera. Unfortunately the files are large. I've been using Adobe Rush to edit the videos on my phone but lately the software has quit syncing properly and I'm losing work. So I need to have a more professional approach.

I have tried to air drop videos to my macbook pro but that is slow and often fails. If I hook up my phone with a cable my phone appears as a removable drive in the "files" section there's no way to see the videos. Under "photos" it says my images are sync'd via iCloud - which is just a backup to me.

So what is the best way to find my videos in the finder and copy them to a drive so that I can backup and edit them in a more professional manner?

Thanks,

Gregor

I have used Image Capture - a lesser know application in macOS - to copy large files to my Mac and it sounds like you would benefit from doing this. You have the option of deleting the files from your iPhone in the process.
