I have my iphone regularly backed up to icloud, but I am hoping to copy all of my photos and videos to an external hard drive so I can then delete a lot of the photos off my iphone.
How or what is the easiest way to do this? I don't want to back up my iphone entirely, but just copy/transfer the pictures/videos.
Thanks in advance!

“How do I copy my iphone photos to an external hard drive? Not backup my entire iphone“
———-
One unique method…
Download All of iCloud, then Search:
Go here, and see what is shown: icloud.com/iclouddrive. You have 5GB of space for free, given your location. So, download all of iCloud. Once dowloaded, search for certain filetypes (ie jpg and gif) through use of a new Finder window on your Mac. Type the file type extensions in the Search Bar on the top-right corner of the Finder window. Next, create a folder of the Desk top. Then, drag-&drop these files to the folder. Next, trash what is in the external drive, and then drag-&-drop this folder into the hard drive. Find ally, trash this folder from your Desktop. You’re set from there with a clean iCloud storage.
