Any photographers in here? My wife has mentioned wanting an iPad mini for editing during traveling. She’s a hobbyist and wants a mini.

Debating between a 6th and 7th gen iPad mini (256GB) with an Apple Pencil. Is the 7th gen and Pencil Pro really worth the $150 additional cost for a hobbyist?

s0lefunk Just get the 7th gen, the 6th is very long in the tooth at this point, and the price difference is minimal.

If it's light editing, I think it would be powerful enough to handle. (especially with the M processors) But if she doing heavy editing (meaning, this is her post edit workhorse) I'd go with the Pro.

People use iPads instead of computers to edit photos?

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

With the power of the pro models and the M-Chip, yeah it's pretty crazy. Especially those who edit while on assignment or on the road.

Lightroom and VSCO are still being utilized by many. And of course, the MBPs.

Thanks. Definitely more of a light editing use case. She doesn’t shoot all the time. Mainly on hikes and vacations. Think I’ll go with the 7th gen mini, 128GB + Pencil Pro. I don’t think she needs all the storage in the world since she’ll only be editing choice photos.

You can attach an external hdd via usb-c and the iPad would recognize the drive. It’s crazy how convenient some processes are now.

rough year for mkbhd lol.

he posted a video of him going like over 90mph in a school(?) zone or something like that.

hes been getting hella backlash again

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

Money is turning him to a clown, or the money is exposing him as a clown..

 

[Magic33]

So that's what that was about

Once he started trying to sell those ugly kicks and giving them to other tech dudes to try and promote I knew what it was with him.

 

[frenchbreadbuilds]

still crazy to see MKBHD's come up. I went to college with him back in the day. he was a few years younger but he was always a reserved down to earth guy back then. He was still doing well enough on his channel that he didnt need to go to school but I always thought it was admirable that he did it anyway. lived on campus, played on the ulitmate frisby team, and all that. We gave him a bid to our fraternity because he was friends with a couple of our brother but he turned it down lol

now hes going 90 in school zones

 

[picasso swerve]

Didnt see the vid but school zone means it isnt on a highway or anything. 90 in city roads to me is crazy irresponsible no matter how you cut it.

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

 

[dakingii]

Lmao I still mess with dude but he should have known any video he makes after the wallpaper app incident will be inspected by the second.

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

internet looking for a way to cancel him
he should hire like 2 quality assurance peeps to make sure he aint slipping for the next 6 months

 

[Kobekobe]

MKBHD needs to hire a PR team at this point

I didn't see the driving so I won't pretend to be outraged by it, but what irked me this year was the $50/year subscription service for a WALLPAPER app. The icing on the cake was when I researched his net worth. No one on here can convince me otherwise that multiple people in his circle didn't tell him this was a bad idea.

Regardless, he's still the best tech YouTuber out there (imo)

[AZwildcats]

Lesson learned, he’ll be alright

 

[shogun]

I didn't know he had a car review channel. he was trashing some bmw for it's looks while worshipping the garbage cybertruck and saying it's an iconic design. Not even RoboCop would drive that trash.

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

Not even RoboCop would drive that trash.

 

[lauk4kicks]

Any big difference between the following?
iphone 15 pro vs iphone 16
iphone 15 pro vs iphoen 16 pro

Other than the new side camera button?
iOS features?
15 pro will have the AI too correct?

15 pro is on sale for black friday, debating on buying that or maybe I can wait until next year and hope for 16 pro to be on sale.

(I forgot the differences/features of the 16 once I finally came around to not buying a 16 at launch lol)
