Hi All -
I have a Nikon D5500 and I took pictures on a trip using a SanDisk 64gb card. When I reached 999 photos, the camera automatically created a new folder for the next batch of pictures. When the card is in the camera, I can see two folders (100 and 101) and these have all my photos. I can view and photos and send wireless to my phone.
When I put the card into a card reader to upload the pictures to my Macbook Pro, only the 100 folder populates/uploads (when I look through my Macbook the 101 folder displays as empty). When I pop the card back into the camera, it still has all my photos and works fine. I shot in JPG and RAW (I'm learning how to use Lightroom so wanted the raw files to play with but also wanted JPGs I could post/send immediately - yes I know this isn't memory friendly!).
So - how do I get those photos in the "101" folder onto my computer? (I don't have a cord to hook the camera directly to the laptop - I have one on order so hoping that works but the fact that I can SEE the folder on the computer and it's showing as empty makes me very nervous). Worst case scenario I can download pics wirelessly to my phone and then use those but obviously that defeats the point of shooting in RAW and dilutes quality. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you!
Sarah
