Hi
This is a cross platform question but it still seems to fit into this forum ok.
I have a 64GB iPhone, a 16GB iPad and a new 256GB MBP.
The phone is running out of storage but there is the option to Optimise iPhone Storage when I go into the Photos app. It seems that this would still allow me to see the photos locally but at a lower resolution.
I know that there's a similar option in High Sierra but
If I used the optimisation option on the phone, w
If I wanted to print, share or copy some of the photos from the phone after the optimisation, are they automatically downloaded to full resolution ?
I'll also add that I have a high spec Windows 10 desktop PC where I could install iCloud support.
Thanks

I have plenty of space on the MBP for now.
If I used the optimisation option on the phone, w
ould this be independent of what I did on the Mac ?
Would I always have the full high resolution photos on the Mac ?

If I did the optimisation in High Sierra, w
ould I still be able to get easy access to all my high resolution photos ? To take a full backup, for example.
As it stands today, I would like to take a backup of all my photos to an external drive. I found a couple of articles on how to do this but my Finder doesn't match there's. Are there any good guides on how to do this for High Sierra ?
