Photos export full res with Optimise Mac Storage? I would be really grateful for some advise please. I am looking for a way to backup my photos on my mac Mini. I have photos set for "Optimise Mac Storage". If I export some photos using the menu "File - Export - Export Unmodified Originals" does this download the full resolution image from iCloud before saving it out? I have read different things on the internet, in some places it says it will download the full resolution image and export it out. In another place it says that this will only happen if the full resolution version happens to be downloaded to the computer, so it could export the thumbnail version instead. Sorry if this is a basic question but newbie just trying to work it all out having moved from Windows. Thanks.

The original image stored in Photos is never changed (thankfully) and will always have the same size, but you can export different sized versions.

When you export a selected picture (or pictures) using Photos>Files>Export nn Photos, you get this dialog:

in which you can choose the size of the exported picture as you like. You also, with "Size," can choose a generic large, medium, small, or full sized.
