Transferring video from IPAD 2

My sister-in-law has an iPad 2 with the last video she took of my father-in-law before he passed away. She would like to share this with the rest of us but is concerned that if she tries to transfer to her computer and does it wrong she may lose it forever. Can someone give me some advice on how this is properly done?

Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. When you import photos or video from an iPad (whether to iPhoto or Image Capture), the "original" isn't deleted from the iPad until you say so through software settings.

When connected to a personal computer (PC), Windows or Macintosh, the iPad 2 communicates with a piece of Apple software called iTunes. The iPad and iTunes work together to synchronize the movie and music available on the iPad 2 to those available on the PC. This happens automatically, without any intervention being required from the user.
After you got the videos converted by a video to iPad 2 converter, connect your iPad 2, launch iTunes and update your library. Once you see your new videos inside the iTunes library, you can easily add them to your iPad. It's pretty easy actually.
