Can you access the MicroSD card without taking it out of the cam.

Like via the USB port on the back. Or through the “power port”??

You can access it by taking it out or by the ‘View Playback’ button on the live view screen

Or if you are wanting to access the card and can live with a “tail” on the cam you can use an extension

What would that do? I don’t need a wire. I want to know if I can hook the USB to my computer and read the card.

Welcome to the community, @SEMDI. No, unfortunately. But there is a #wishlist request for a different type of SD card remote access.

The USB is power only, no data.

If you just want to get the video to your device to possibly edit in an app, a cluncky workaround is to decide what timeframe on playback you want, set it to play and record the playback. It will record to your album which is accessible on your device.
Downside of this is it takes real-time for the initial recording. But, then you have it.
Hey- I said it was clunky! Please go vote as @DreadPirateRush suggested!
And, welcome to the Community!
