Especially if you like to take many pictures or you are a photographer, I think it is really great news that Amazon allows you to store both jpegs and raw files! A few albums of photos can take a lot of space … and your total image library can grow up even more than 1TB!!Įven though the upload could be faster, this can be an easy and cheap way to backup your pictures in a Cloud and possibly to share some of them with parents or for a Blog/ Facebook.
Therefore it is sometimes worth saving even that kind of file for possible further post-processing. The advantages of raw are that you keep the dynamic range of the image, so you can do a lot of post-processing tweaks to compensate for under or overexposure. If you don’t know what a raw file is, let know that that is the output from the camera sensor without compression (or only light compression): most cameras (even smartphones) allow you to have that kind of file, possibly together with the jpg image.

I remind you that if you are a student, to be a Prime user cost only 18€/year instead of 36€/year and you have 3 months free of charge to try it (... and possibly you can always cancel your subscription before you have to pay!). Maybe not everyone knows that some photos or albums you create in your Amazon storage can be shared with other people or even possibly linked in a blog/site, without wasting memory space for which you should have to pay for: so I did in this post of mine for showing a several pictures slideshow (in Aggiornamenti sul Trincerone tra via Sempione e via Gottardo -> link to Amazon Photo album). Maybe not everyone knows that an Amazon Prime user has unlimited storage (only) for photos, among several benefits like being able to see movies with Prime Video, music with Prime Music, ebooks with Prime Reading … and, obviously, quicker free delivery of goods!
