Ok.  I thought the program itself had a "copy" of pics and was
changing its copies, not the ones on the card.  (That make sense?)

I think I won't "edit" pics until I've copied to machine and then
edit
from there. but now I have Irfanview opening them and it is not
supposed to alter any data, so I will see if that actually works.  If
so, that's even better.

Thanks for your reply.

The windows photo viewer will save straight back to the card when the image 
is rotated. That's why it takes so long, just rotating the image would be 
instant.
