I'm an Austronaut
My dad filled up his space in iCloud because of recording videos from a concert. The videos are 4K HEVC and I would like to move them from the Photos.app to an external drive.

When I drag and drop the video into a Finder window, the video's extension changes to MOV, and the file size is also reduced. The same happens when I import the video from the Photos.app to a folder.

Please let me know if you know how to move the videos while retaining the HEVC extension and file size, thank you
