Exporting Canon raw images from Photos

[brian74]

I have loaded a lot of Canon raw images into Photos and hence iCloud. I'd like to back the up to a memory stick but the normal export didn't export them to the memory stick. Any ideas how I can do this?

Hello and welcome.

-Which version of OS X?
-Which version of Photos?
-Did it export them to another location on your Mac, instead of directly to your flash drive?

Hi,

Just to add, did you try this.
Export the photos to a desktop folder with kind = original and mount the flash drive and drag the folder to it

OS is El Capitan 10.11.4
Photos 1.4

I selected all the photos and then Export directly to the USB stick. It said there were some 9000 to export however when it finished it said some 2000 were not exported. The listed files were all Canon Raw files xxx.CR2

OK, thanks for the additional information.

-Did you use Export Unmodified Original for x Photos...?
-Which model Canon?
-Photos is now at version 1.5, you could try updating.
-Also, you could try exporting just a couple of CR2 files to test.
