Downloading photos/pictures from 750i

Is there an obvious way to download photos from the 750i that I'm just missing? My 750i is my first outdoor/mapping Garmin in many years. I've only been dealing with my Fenix watches for the longest time. Well, I did buy an InReach Explorer before this but only used it for a few months before buying my Montana.

But how in the world do I get the pics off the stupid GPS? I've never used BaseCamp. Is that the only way? I forked out the extra money for the camera b/c I could see the utility. If I'm in an area where I'm relying on my Montana for communication, I typically have my phone stashed somewhere for safekeeping. It seems like this could be such a great all-in-one device if Garmin didn't kneecap it at every turn.

  • Look, I love the device. I just think support for the photo function was poorly integrated. The lack of ease in downloading pics was the one thing bothering me about it. Well, the main thing. I use GIS practically daily. Nothing too intense. Simple data collection and maps. But I don’t want my consumer Garmin as difficult to figure out as something from Trimble or ESRI. Just seems like a shortcoming that there’s no way to export photos via Explore.

    It's nowhere near as bad as you attempt to make it sound,  and BaseCamp is the best device information manager Garmin ever created. 

    You can always change brands if you are unable to find any joy with your current selection.
