6. My Oly gear doesn't have internal memory, only the card.

I typically use a card reader and run the files through File Explorer. I enlarge the images to full screen and sort through them using DELETE to clean up any obviously bad focus/exposure/etc before going to Corel Paintshop Photo Pro and do it all over again in File Manage mode. I use PS because I can own it and have a dvd backup. That way I can upgrade on my terms. I'm currently two generations behind current. As best I can tell Photo Shop has nothing of note over what Corel offers.

The new OLY cameras all have wifi transfer so I could do it wireless but at 72 I'm habitual in my work flow. I've just begun to use the Oly IOshare on my smart phone as a remote control and for image sharing with family. Was kinda forced into it as all new firmware updates go through IO share now. The remote control is neat, I can see what the camera sees on my Galaxy, select focus point and make all camera settings from the phone. It's still a little slow on shutter release so not worth much for wildlife but great in studio.
