My high res shots are not imported to my computer

[lolpetewtf]

I recently installed the Folders app that just came out. I can see doubles of all the pics I took, the higher MP shots end with high_res. When I import them to my computer it has not imported the high res ones. My options look to be correct. Help?

In photos/camera options make it so that OneDrive exports in the highest resolution. Also it will not export the RAW photos.

Ok, I see. Does this mean I cannot import high res pics directly to my desktop via USB? Are they forcing us to use OneDrive?

You can the easiest option is to open computer, click on the phone and open the appropriate folder and drag them to the folder you want them in. Now windows wont be able to natively view raw (the files will show but not the image). You will have to download a raw viewer or use a program such as adobe lightroom to view and edit the photos.

Raw is not a jpg it is literally the raw camera data. It allows much more leway in editing but will have to be edited/exported as a jpg by a program such as lightroom to print or share online.

If you don't want to use raw the camera can also be changed in settings to use only high RES jpg.

Hi All - I understand that DNG format files won't be imported to my computer automatically, but when using JPG (5 MP + 16 MP), how can I have it so that it imports the HighRes Jpeg as well without needing me to manually copy it in...

Regards.
