These days, 15GB of photos is pretty close to nothing. If I go on a trip for a week to take pictures, I can easily shoot 50-100GB of images. (Using my full-frame DSLR, shooting in raw, average image size is over 50MB, meaning < 20 images per GB).
- bootlooped 6y agoI don't think I'm making too many assumptions when I say RAW photos from a DSLR being uploaded to Google Photos is not anywhere near the intended use-case. However I still agree that 15GB of photos is pretty close to nothing these days.
- sib 6y agoWell... their own marketing does say: "A home for all your photos and videos" and they have a blog post titled: "Easy Wi-Fi backup from your Canon camera to Google Photos" in which they say "you can choose to automatically transfer original quality photos to Google Photos"
- bootlooped 6y agoInteresting, I didn't know there was a camera that could do it directly. I always did want that for my Sony a6000. But for jpeg, not raw. After sitting in front of Lightroom for hours upon tedious hours adjusting vacation pics, I will never shoot in raw again.

- sib 6y agoThese photos are compressed. The uncompressed raw files (or TIFF) are much bigger.
