video transfer from ipad air to computer

Can someone help me out here as lve been trying to download videos from my ipad air to my computer windows7 for days and still got no where...
i have itunes and that comes on every time l put the lead from ipad to computer but l dont want to go this way to download even though l dont know how to do it with itunes..
While the leads are connected l look onto my computer but it does not show any device on removeable storage and l thought it would show l have the ipad connected to pc.
Is there any free software/app that l can download onto my computer to transfer my videos from my ipad...

    Simple, plug it into your computer it will appear under "computer" by its name, Double click on it. Double click on internal storage, double click on DCIM, all your photos and vids will be in the next lot of folders.
    Copy and paste to where you want them.

    You may also be able to send it via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi Direct, depending on your setup

    l have seen that but don't know how to do iTunes anyway..
    If possible I would rather just download videos straight to computer like l can with camera videos .

    Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper-right corner, click the magnifying glass, enter Computer, and press Return. Right-click your device under Portable Devices (if present) and choose Import Photos.
    Windows 7: Choose Start > Computer. Under Portable Devices, right-click the device and choose Import Photos.
