Windows Central Question

I'm changing my Lumia 925 running 8.1 to a new Lumia 830 also running 8.1.

How can I transfer all my Camera Roll pics in the old phone to the Camera Roll in new phone? Seems like Camera Roll syncs unidirectionally from the phone to OneDrive so can't do it that way...
 
Sync is in one direction but you can download the photo's from OneDrive to your new phone. This can take some time due to up and download time.

1 If you get an sd card for the 830.
Connect your 925 to your computer and place the SD card in the card reader of your phone and copy the phone folder to the SD card.
2 Copy the 925 data to your computer and from your computer to your 830.
 
If you have Onedrive backup enabled in your camera settings, all your photos are saved, and getting them back is as easy as connecting to a PC and dragging them to your new phone.
