Question: photo editing on 1020 vs on desktop

Hi all,

Does Nokia Creative Studio edit ( non zoom/crop ) on the original large and not-yet-oversampled image file, and turn it into a 5 mega-pixel image during save, or does it just edit on the smaller image? I don't need mega size images but I would prefer the scaling down down to be done after all adjustments had been applied.

Thanks.

The only app that ever interacts with the 41MP shots is Nokia Pro Cam. All other apps interact solely with the 5MP oversampled shots.

Heck, even the OS doesn't touch them. When you delete a 5MP photo, the 41MP just idles there until you connect to a desktop and remove them. It's actually really odd, because Nokia's own Storage Check reports them as being deleted, but they're still there. I.E: I deleted a bunch of photos an Storage Check said I had 7GB worth of photos and video, but when I plugged it into my desktop, it said I had 10GB of photos, and sure enough, all the high res shots were there.
