If you opt for the 1TB option, you get 2 NAND chips on the SSD, meaning 6.000 mb/s instead of 3.000. That is something that Apple does not tell you on their site.
How important are SSD RW speeds. I'm okay with waiting for 30 mins instead of 15 mins for an export. I just can't spend that much money. I'm getting m2 pro but with 32gb ram and my use case is heavy editing with things like 4k 120fps with a canon 3rs and some audio editing. I just want my edits to be clean and relatively fast. I'll be using apple software (finalcut and logic) apart from maybe Adobe lightroom for some photos.
I have a mac mini m1 but i pretty much only do color grading work on davinci resolve, the performance is fine with the dropped resolution, but i would love to know if there would be a great saving on export times going with the m2 pro, because it's my 'bottleneck' right now....
8:02 You don't seem to know a lot about video codecs, do you? H.265 is an interframe codec, meaning if you are on one frame, the software needs to look back at previous frames to get the full information. Hence why an interframe format is harder to play back, than an intraframe format. Only every x frame contains a new full image H.264, DNxHD, DNxHR and ProRes are examples of intraframe formats. All frames in the video contains the full information of that particular frame, which makes playback easier. Even a potato PC or Mac should be able to playback ProRes without too much stutter, as it's low compression, although high bandwith because of the high datarate. The highest ProRes are though with extreme high bandwith, as much as gigabits per second, but that kind of high bandwidth is only used in pre-production. I don't have the exact numbers of the top of my head, but ProRes goes from something like 50Mbit/s to 4Gbit/s, depending on the format and resolution.
Great video! Very detailed and helpful. Just got the M2 max, so far so good. Playing back my 4K 60fps footage no problems whereas my old mb pro would lock up. Having the right machine makes a WORLD of difference.
I think the latest generation of macs need at least 1TB of SSD and 32-64GB RAM to be able to handle both the processor and the high end video editors. The M1 and M2 both are not optimized until you get to 1TB SDD.
@@sideways6087 It is a well known fact among IT professionals that storage affects the speed of the computer. When your RAM becomes full, it creates a file on your hard drive for the overflow tasks. If you do not have space available for this, the computer may slow down drastically.
Hey :) I have now seen this video a couple of time, and i have to still you a question so i can think clear :D For about 2weeks ago, i bought a GoPro 11, and then i realised that my gamerPC with windows, cant take the H.265, so i have to convert my files everytime i should edit something. If i buy a MacMini M2 with 256gb and 8gb ram, will i then edit my videos smooth directly from the GoPro 11 ? -I capture videos in 2160P60-4k..
Use proxies for playback and editing. H.265 is the worse format to have in a timeline. The NLE only uses the easily played back proxies, during editing. When you export, the original video files are used.
As a video editor who has worked with resolutions from 360p-4k and higher bitrates on adobe premiere I've always run my preview at the lowest possible quality regardless of what PC I was using (x5680, 3930k 12700K with GTX 960, RTX 3050 and 6900xt) Is full preview render quality only meant for animators?
Great video. I have basically the same Mac Mini but the playback is horrible. Even with 1/4 resolution. I've heard some people say that it matters what monitor you are using. Wondering if you have any knowledge about this issue since I see tons of people with ths same problem.
I think a windows PC which i5 13400(6P cores+4E cores)+3050+32GB RAM DDR4+512GB SSD is most powerfull and cheaper than mac mini M2 PRO in premiere pro and davinci revolve BUT! (the elefant in the room) how powerfull is a mac mini M2 PRO in final cut pro??
It's not about making 12K videos. The 12K resolution gives the editor and director options in the clipping room, like zooming a bit in on a clip, while not loosing quality for a 4K video and without having to do an AI upscaling. And VFX artists would love to work only on 8K or 12K footage. It makes it so much easier to mask things out etc.
Thanks! I have a question, I’m a “professional” videographer based in Mexico, i gave my 16” inch MacBook Pro to my sis because I’m planning to get another one, was planning on a Mac Mini with a monitor, my question is this: ¿Can any of the Mac Mini M2’s run 24 fps Canon raw Lite from a C200 comfortably? I saw you have the 60fps DCI which is not my main workflow, wondered if you would know.
I am a newbie in video production. Love your videos and channel. I have a doubt. I am looking forward to release a RU-vid channel. I am a music producer. I basically want to shoot videos inside my studio which is well lighted. So I am looking to buy Sony aZV E-10 Mirrorless camera and a lens for my shooting. I want to shoot good quality 4k Videos from it, edit it and release it. So basically a Mac Mini M2 Pro (base variant 10 Core CPU, 16 Core GPU, 16 GB RAM) will handle all the 4K video editing of videos from my Sony camera? I will be doing some transitions and little color grading and stuffs. Davinci Resolve or FCP are my choices for the Softwares.
Apple fanboys Mac's don't need a lot of memory these computers are so optimised 😅 WRONG 8GB or 16GB of RAM belongs to mobile phones, not desktop computers.
depends on the user where 8 or 16 is just fine. also the m1 has faster SSD for unified memory swap performance so you can get away with less ram. I would personally need at least 32GB for my needs if I got a mac tho, which is the base model of the next tier Mac Studio
@huhmike I like not to think about the RAM. The good thing about PC, RAM is quite cheap. I run 64GB Corsair DDR5 in my rig. I understand apple charging insane prices for RAM upgrades so you have to think about how much you going to use. PC World I will take 64GB just in case 😅 for only £300 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSDs should be banned by the EU those computers can last much longer but people will replace them in a few years. We have too much e-waste already.
@@TomasRamoska DDR5 supports a speed of 51.2 GB per second. Apples Ram is LPDDR5 at 204.8 GB per second on the Pro chip. The Max chip gets 409 GB per second. And the Ultra is 819 GB per second. So obviously you have cheaper Ram, _because you have cheaper Ram_ .
@@ghost-user559 Apple uses LPDDR5-6400 Ram in all computers you listed. Same Ram nothing special about it. LPDDR5 is Low Power DDR5 Because they build all systems on one chip they build more lanes to access them on the higher-tier chips. The speed you mentioned on DDR5 is measured per module (51.2 GB/s) no one runs a PC with one RAM stick. You will have at least two.
