How do I transfer photos from one iphone to the iphone 5?

Hi, if I plug both iphones into iTunes they give both the same name. How do I change that? Also I have 350 photos on the old iphone which I want to transfer to the new one. How do I do that, Please.

You can change the name of your phones in Settings/About/Name. It doesn't matter whether the names are the same though. iTunes knows which one is which.

Thanks, Kevin. Maybe I am being stupid but I can't find settings. There is one called Preferences but it doesnt give me a namechange option. I really DO NOT LIKE iTunes! But I love the iPhone so have to live with it.

Thanks for that. Do I use the Restore button that says you can restore to its original settings? Or else where do I find another restore? As I said to Kevin I hate iTunes, as a senior citizen it is not user-friendly!

Hang on. I'll find it on my phone and post the screen shot. You change the name on your phone, not in iTunes.
