Why is the size of my export of all photos/videos into Windows not the same as what iPhone/iTunes says my usage is?
I'm trying to export all the photos on my iPhone before deleting them from my iPhone.
iTunes says that I'm using 44.12GB of on photos.
I used the "export" feature in Windows 7 and the total file size for that folder is only 3.11 GB.
I used Windows Explorer to copy the entire DCIM folder and that is only 796 MB.
What gives? The 40 plus GB discrepancy can't be from just iCloud and Photo Stream, can it? I have no idea what's going on here.
I have done a backup from iTunes already but I want to have a useful set of the photos I'll be deleting.
Thank you in advance for any light you can shed on this.
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1, 64GB
