[QUOTE="krs, post: 1842692, member: 67742"] I recently received an image in .HEIC format which I never heard of before and El Capitan couldn't open it. It was sent from a 2017 MBp running the latest macOS. I converted it eventually to jpg via some web converter so that preview would open it. The reason I mention it is because the file size of that image in HEIC format was significantly smaller than .jpg equivalent, so if the OP is trying to save some space storing the images, using that format may be a consideration.
