I have the same problem in transferring photos. Please tell me where I can get the "photo transfer app"? Does this work with Android?

Google is your friend.

Filedrop is an application for osx windows android and IOS (although the ios version is the only paid version reviews are not good). For IOS and Macs Airdrop is better.

when you run file drop any other computers also running file drop show up in a window on your computer. Pick up a file or folder and drop it on the computer in the window you want to copy it to. When you do this an alert pops up on the destination computer asking if you want to accept or reject the file if you accept it transfers over. There is a little drawer at the bttom of the app window click on that and your filemanager will open the folder

It is really simple to use, no ip's or shares to configure just start the app on both systems wait around 30 seconds for the other computer or tablet or phone to appear and do the transfer. It is that straightforward, your granny could do it you just need to be connected to the same wifi network.

you can even set up a wifi hotspot on your phone and get your pc or mac to connect to it.

Funny, I don't seem to have the problems mentioned with RAW. I shoot both on each frame and pick and choose those I want to work with in RAW. I use both quite happily.

Or, one could ignore Apple or Crapple as I call it, and not deal with an overpriced and overrated company.

So, are you also still watching a Black and White TV? Or maybe it's that you just prefer all the "crap" that Micro$oft shoves down our throats? And, in case you weren't paying attention, HEIF does not belong to Apple, was not developed by Apple. It won't be long before the majority of camera and cell phone manufacturers switch to HEIF Duh. So, how is your horse and buggy these days?

Apple didn't create HEIF! Be better informed before you make such inaccurate statements! And if you think Apple stole too much technology from other companies, you'd best take a long hard look at Micro$oft, but I digress. I guess you can't remember when all those lawsuits were filed against Micro$oft, how many States was it anyway? When Micro$oft wants technology that they didn't develop, they either buy, borrow or steal it. Years and years of litigation often follow, with Micro$oft winning because they eventually just buy the suing company outright.

Anyone who cares about the quality of the image and the versatility in post processing it, SHOULD be shooting in raw.

To me, this is no different than the different music format Apple uses (m4a) versus the more popular MP3 format. Both of the media files are routinely converted back and forth. Just like raw, every company has their own little format.

But this is not raw. This is a patented method of packaging images, which Apple is using to package some "cooked" form. As far as we know, any other company could also pay for a license to use this method. As far as we know Apple is using this method only encapsulated within their system, and will still use JPEG when interacting with other systems.

Seems like much ado about nothing. The Apple haters hate, the Apple lovers like, and in reality it is not really that big a deal.

Thank you for explaining that. By all means keep doing things that way because it seems to make you happy to be able to tell people what a luddite you are. And also how closed minded you are.

I hope and pray no matter how long I live, I never get that way.

HEIF and HEVC will be seamlessly exported. Apple won't leave you in the lurch.

They're just doing what they do best, nudging the entire market in a much better direction. Anyone remember floppy disks? Serial ports? Parallel ports? Phones with keyboards?...

So I can blame Apple for taking away all my stuff?
Burk in my everyday work I still need serial ports, parallel ports and at times floppy disks. And it's very difficult to replace them when they go bad.

Thanks for the tip. I was a bit disappointed to see the elimination of the DCIM folder on IOS 11, but it's back after turning off 'Keep Photo Normal" - who decided was normal and abnormal? I'm keeping abnormal photos now and my DCIM folder, full of jpegs is back.
