Me too. I would like to buy these glasses, but I believe it is better to wait for next generation. Any hints when it could be? I hope for the horizontal video being allowed in the new generation 🤞😀
Excellent review of the Shimoda V2 25L sir! I ordered the V2 30L only because I need the large mirrorless cube for a 12.5” long lens. I also like the aluminum frame which permits the bag to stand vertically on its own, which few bags do.
Your financial decisions today may seem expensive. However, you buy Apple because they are cutting edge quality and usually ahead. The costs need to be thought out into the future as videos/digital images... artwork film making will all require larger storage for screening and having the M4 studio 'maxed' with this monitor, and you're talking 10 years of awesomeness ❤ Then because you're the kind that keeps things nice will trade in this for a entirely new upgraded to modernity and you'll spend more then.😎
The implementation for the iPad is to do something like Samsung DEX (Desktop Experience). Until that comes out at least fix the file management system. I would be find with that for the time being. Apple is not going to put MacOS and cannibalize their sales on the Mac.
I just got a C70 three months ago coming from a C100 M2 - It's an odd duck camera for sure, but it has proven itself as reliable machine with a good feature set, solid image quality, and good codec choices. I came up with a EVF solution for outdoor shooting and for my run-and-gun shooting style the camera serves me-
I just want 3 things; Finder comes to iPad (could even be a fun Ad) Being able to run MacOS apps (in case you need to) Background tasks/apps available on the control center (for things like exporting video or apps like rectangle (window snapping)) Also better performance (my iPad struggles driving an external monitor and running 3 apps… the M1 Mac’s does infinitely more)
Now everything make sense 😂😂😂 apple is basically most intelligent and updated company ever 😂. See they update everything it may be price new ipad product with complete new features
Completely agreed, basically replace files with finder. Files fails as a streamlined file manager, it’s actually more complicated than finder / file explorer lmao. Multi tasking should also be more in line with what Mac/Windows can do, allow more than 4 windows, less restrictive sizing, background tasks etc. Replace safari with a desktop version, it functions as the mobile version in a lot of websites and some websites really don’t work that well on the iPad. And this may be a pipe dream but we should be allowed to sideload apps and potentially run Mac OS apps on the iPad? At least have a way to opt in for some of these more experimental features. For me the M4 iPad Pro was still worth the upgrade over my A12Z IPad Pro, as someone who is primarily a digital artist the extra performance, storage, improved screen and accessories have made my workflow noticeably better. But the iPad really could be a lot more and I still feel obligated to own a laptop for the handful of things that my iPad is incapable of doing as it currently is.
"YOU SHOULD BUY IT". IF YOU ARE NOT MARRIED AND CAN SELL A KIDNEY!!! And That Without A STAND! Come On Apple! Let Us Little Steven Spielbergs Play With The Other Reindeer!
I honestly think it all comes down to what your computing needs are. Recently, I traded both my Macbook and old iPad for an 11” M4, I appreciate the fact that the iOS/iPadOS usage are based primarily on one app at a time, personally for me it just makes it more focused into that one task. Ports? I’m just plugging in my Sony A1 directly and transferring photos/videos that way, works great, using internal storage to edit and just plugging it in if I need to charge it while editing. In the end, it’s understanding and seeing the workarounds. Sure, there are compromises, but I enjoy the versatility that it brings. Here’s to Apple bringing more features and polishing iPadOS more and more 🥂
I never really thought bringing macOS would be the best solution for the iPad. It seems like an easy copout for Apple and third party developers to force a half-baked experience that's not designed for a touch-first interaction. When the iPad was introduced by Steve more than a decade ago, he highlighted how the iPad's main purpose was to excel at tasks that you can already do on a Mac and the rapidly developing iPhone at the time. Now as the iPad has grown up, it's definitely more capable than ever, but the software has indeed had a hard time to catch up with the customer's demands.
I think fundamentally I agree. Simply iPad OS with true finder capability (like file associations, universal sidebar, a consistent save/save as/open UI) and true background multitasking (I’m fine with the current multitasking front-end UI frankly) - and adding to this proper font management- would solve 90% of my issues as a designer. And the touchscreen direct input + Apple Pencil is magical for me… HOWEVER - a fundamental issue isn’t the OS itself but apps. There is a tendency for the key developers to still insist on creating feature incomplete “companion” apps for iPad Pros (aka devices more powerful than a Macbook)… and it seems impossible to get them to not do so. Adobe is highly guilty of this. A key reason I ended up with a Macbook I didn’t want was I needed Photoshop on the road and the PS iPadOS app was a joke. The latest version does bring it closer to parity to the point where it’s viable for more straightforward work but still lacks key features like smart filters, CMYK/color mode support, Channels and a full set of layer effects. Even Apple software is guilty of this. Only this upcoming version of FCP for iPad even has the ability to edit off an external drive - and still can’t use third-party plugins. If nothing else, an option of last resort to run Mac App binaries in a sandbox similar to the way Mac can run Windows applications via Whiskey/Wine would be a big difference. I understand Apple’s hesitation because they’re afraid not only of sales but that will incentivize developers to simply not make iPad specific versions of key apps. But the devs (including Apple!) already do minimum-effort versions for iPad that are 50%+ useless now anyway. This at least provides an option for users who absolutely need a certain pro-level piece of software. And I recognize that until iPad OS has a true finder-like file system and drivers many of these apps would break, so that coming to iPad OS is a prerequisite
Microsoft ruined Windows making it touch compatible. Apple isn’t going go to make the same mistake. Apple has always been more experience over function, and i don’t see that changing
I want a MacOS iPad Pro but the reality is Apple doesn’t want to lose MacBook sales. We already have the Microsoft Surface Pro and 2-in-1 laptops on the Windows side. Microsoft is clearly coming for users who want a MacOS iPad Pro. Their latest iteration of the Surface Pro runs on ARM architecture only. Users (like me) are waiting for real-world tests before deciding to switch. For now, I’m happy with my M2 Pro MacBook Pro, iPad Air 4, and iPad Mini 6.
