The aesthetic of your videos are sooooo fantastic... could you ever consider doing a video of how u light your videos? The kind of lighting setup, the power, where do u set them... I know it’s a long shot, but would love it! Congrats for such a high level work.
I was a PC user for years, and I was always thinking "well, Macs suck because you can't upgrade. I'm not buying a PC for 2 years!". But the reality is that, at the time, my PC was running very very slow after 2 years. I needed to format the hard drive to start fresh. (Win 95, Win 98, Win XP times, who remembers ? ahaha). But 7 years ago, I bought a 13" Macbook Pro and it never failed me. I never formatted my HD, I never felt the need to upgrade my machine... and I'm still using it on battery for at least 90 min without a charge.
The last Mac I bought was a $3000 MacBook Pro in 2011 and that thing had major thermal issues. I would never consider another Mac laptop until the M1 because it just seemed like Apple couldn’t figure out how to create a good cooling system.
@@umangku99 The Pro does have significantly more battery, though, so that $300 would be well spent if they prioritise more portability than others might.
@@sharathravishankar6782 actually it’s not that significant, more like 30 minutes. There’s a comparison on RU-vid and both lasted about the same. For portability the air is lighter than the pro.
@@sidbrun_ this! Air is more ergonomic for longer typing sessions, which is quite important! And it’s significantly cheaper, now has also p3, True Tone and magic keyboard. And no fan! And 10% battery less than pro would rarely matter
Ohhhhh man I've been waiting for this one. I upgraded from my late 2013 13" back in June to a 2020 13" 4-port model. The difference in performance has already been bonkers. Going from 8gb to 16gb of RAM and doubling the cores has made Lightroom and Photoshop far, far more usable. I've been able to open a good 15-20 500mb TIFF files in Photoshop for compositing without it breaking much of a sweat. The only real time I wait for it is while it's saving over the network to my gaming desktop/storage monster. So, while I'm gushing about the machine I type this on, I'm faced with the reality that I paid a good $2,600 CAD for it, when I could now theoretically get about 1.6x the multicore performance for nearly $1k less. I'm VERY excited to see what's in store for the high end 13" and the 16".
I’ve got an Alienware laptop, 2 years old. Just love horses. All of them under the hood. With these new M1 machines, highways on-ramps were made for gear heads
Here’s a link from Daring Fireball and Apple Developer about the difference if you want to read more. daringfireball.net/linked/2020/11/28/rosetta-translation
Probably my biggest pet peeve of M1 coverage. Avg person shouldn’t care but helps explain the performance gains vs traditional emulation/virtualization.
Thank you for showing what Photoshop looks like on a 13" MBA. Another reviewer said he could only see "3-4" layers at any given time and he was clearly exaggerating. From what I see and the work I do, this is more than satisfactory real estate for a portable machine.
Never considered the existence of a Gigapixel “community” but now I wonder how I never heard of them before. Every profession in tech has their hardo faction.
@@user-dh5fp4gw1b Yes for editing, not so much for exporting. It definitely struggles while an export is going. I could live with 8gb easily for personal use, but if you do need the productivity, get 16gb.
Just sold my MBP 13” late 2016 with 8 gigs RAM for 40% of the purchase price in 3 days. A good deal. Ordered the new MBP 13” M1 with 16 gigs RAM and I’m looking forward to get a small beast as my secondary Mac (main Mac is my iMac) for travel use, teathered use and editng photos and videos (shooting with Sony A7$ iii and A7R iii) on the go. I think the new “lower” pricing will fit a lot of pro users as their 2nd Mac, and consumers as well. Great video with actually editing tests. Thanks for sharing.
Knowing you can use C1 and tether with no issues is awesome! I'm trying to hold off for the 16 inch or new iMac but if I had to replace my older Macbook Pro I feel much more comfortable about it now. Thanks for the video!
I love how the RU-vidrs think that mac is going to take over the world... and how they measure computational capacity by how fast you can create and upload videos on RU-vid... but I am really excited about the new M1.. lets hope you have Bootcamp support anytime soon because in real life some applications only run in windows.
All RU-vidr just shows performance in video and photo, I understand since that's all you guys do but Can you show performance in other areas like autodesk software, etc
I was a Windows guy all my life until the M1 chip. They are going to have a hard time selling Windows machines when people realize how far ahead Apple is with the M1 line. It's not even competitive. Battery life is amazing. Granted, I've only had my MBP a few days but I still haven't had the fan come on yet and it is cool to the touch.
i went to JB hi fi and used new M1 for few minutes, if apple just adds 120hz pro motion and make bezel thin,trust me a lot of people going to switch from windows to mac. The fact macOS comes with iWork apps like pages, numbers which i find sometimes better than Microsoft office and privacy like inbuilt filecault, encrypting folders and all make them cheaper than other manufacturers. Apple is future.
I noticed a significant difference when upgrading from my 2019 base model 13 inch MacBook Pro to the m1 MacBook Air. It’s literally about the same editing/rendering experience as my PC, with ryzen 3700x, 32GB RAM, rx 5700 xt!
I always appreciate when the Stalmaster gives his feedback 👌🏻 beautifully done as always! 👍🏻 my laptop got stolen, so I’m going to pick one of these up as my portable work machine, and then get one of the new iMacs at a later stage for an home work machine. Because then I can wait for the really good stuff 👌🏻 a pitty I ordered the MBP, looking at how good the air is doing I could have saved some money’s, but we get some damn hot days here in South Africa and I think that fan will come in handy.
Everyone thinks the Air is going to be the cheapest Macbook they release, but I completely disagree. I fully expect a 12" Air to come out when they do a refresh. This would essentially just be the 12" Macbook that they discontinued last yeah but perhaps with a better webcam. I also think they'll recycle the M1 down to that computer while the refreshed 13" Air will get the update M2. They'll probably price the 12" around 699-799. This will be a huge blow to PC's and a huge boon for Apple.
I've been studying channels like yours, because I want to replace my 2012 MacBook Pro. But I read some others say the M1 chip sucks, bytes whatever. Is the M1 chip good or not. Should I get the MacBook Pro or air, for video and photography editing?
Great stuff Tyler. Commercial looks really nice as well. I’ve got a Komodo vs C70 video coming soon and I took some of your feedback in to account that you gave on my c200 vs Komodo video.
Hey Tyler, good video. Ive been litterally waiting for your review on m1 but i was expecting couple of other things in this review. Like multiple raw files converting to tiff on capture one, or calibrating the monitor, or using a wacom tablet. How do they work? If i have use a second monitor will i be able to calibrate it? Can i use wacom tablet properly? Everyone talkes about how powerfull they are and ofcourse it is important but i think for us photographers there are small but crazy important stuff that needs to work from day one and i still dont have any answer about those. I hope you can make a video about them. Thank you :)
I’m anxious to hear from a photographer if Photo Mechanic runs on an M1 and currently in Rosetta 2? That for me is a deal breaker and Camera Bits is conservative and says don’t do it if the work is critical. But nobody has said it works, it doesn’t or parts don’t work.
I’m baffled, I was ready to pull trigger on the new 13 inch MacBook Pro M1, contacted Capture One which I have subscription. They told me that at this point Capture One will not run on M1 MacBooks?
Great video , as a beginner to photography I’m going to be using luminar Ai for my editing . Will I need to buy the 16gb MacBook or would the 8 suffice ? Thanks
@@stalman Cool and which drives do you use since you obviously working with larger files. Maybe a good topic for a new video? Neverless really enjoy your videos and looking forward to the next ones.
If they release a Macbook 2-3 years later with the M1 chip and sell it for $799, kinda like what they did with the $329 iPad (selling an iPad with a 2 generation old chip and an old chassis), THEN that will be a game changer.
M1 Air with 16gb RAM vs M1 pro with 8gb RAM? Which one would you recommend for a student who uses multiple chrome tabs, Microsoft apps, pdfs, etc and wants to keep the laptop for the next 3-4 years?
@@udit3566 I've watched a zillion videos on the M1 machines now, and from your use case, I would expect you'd be fine with the base M1 Air. However, if you really want to make sure you're squared away for big workloads, the extra RAM in either the Air or Pro is what I'd be looking at. Reason is that it cannot be upgraded, while you can use external drives for more storage to solve any capacity issues.
Can you speak more to what the 2020 iMac does better or faster than the M1’s with video editing? For my use case, I use a 2020 16” loaded MBP and I can easily choke my system (final cut) when editing glitchy style intros or more commercial style stuff. Essentially I have to use proxy’s anyway so in that case are the M1’s still “better” in some things? Or would a loaded iMac still be better if I’m working with proxy’s anyway?
what is happening with the frames of this video? is it like a flickering light?? or a problem with the camera?? or a problem with the sync between the frequencies between the camera and the light?? idk
What do you use to transfer video/photos to M1 Mac Book Pro? My laptop cracked during normal use and after having the new laptop repaired, I'm having a problem transferring video/photos to laptop. There's a class action lawsuit against Apple for its defective product. I've used Apple products for years, but I find the M1 Mac Book Pro defective.
Considering he Canon R5's overheating issues, how did you managed to shoot this (and the other videos)? Doesn't the shutting down/waiting time after get overheated bothers you/your content creation workflow? Fantastic overall video quality by the way(imagem, sound and arguments).
I heard wacom drivers do not work on m1. If I purchased an m1, then few months wacom optimized their drivers for m1 to work, would my purchased m1 update for that or it can't? And do you think if i buy the base air with 16gb ram, will it last at least 4 years?
Would really have been nice along with the information For your laptop that you had published a list along with it,it would have been much easier to follow you and much more appreciate.
Hey Tyler. I've been pretty sold on the M1 MacBook Pro and will likely get one this year. Wondering if you would recommend 16GB memory/512GB storage or 8GB memory/1TB storage. Is this splitting hairs with the performance of these M1 chips? Would one be better for longevity? Would probably invest in external storage. I currently use a 2012 MacBook Pro. I've had to replace the hard drive twice lol. I would likely use a new laptop for 8 years or so again.
Hey Man, I hope you can answer my question, did you color calibrate the macbook screen? for adobe rgb mode or anything, please help me, I am new to mac
"Destroy the whole windows laptop market for a while". While I agree the hype is real, I am not sure how much that's true. People buy Windows laptops for 3 major reasons. Variety of hardware choices, games, and price. None of those are addressed with what Apple has done. If you were an Apple customer before, Apple is doing a great job of offering you better tools. But if you had reasons to not be an apple customer to date, nothing within the current offering is going to bring people over. I feel the closest thing, will be battery life. But 20 hour batteries exist on the windows side as well.
I know what you mean, gamers won't care and anyone who wants to customize will be disgusted by the M1. But I'm will to bet that MacBook Air will start to way outsell every other $1000 machine and that is a huge slice of the pie
@@stalman Even I, a hardcore PC guy since the early 90s would buy an Air or Pro if I wanted a portable machine for work/media and video editing on the go today. Apple really changed the game and as a hardware enthusiast we knew it was coming. ARM is just way faster/clock than x86 if you make the right software. Good video!
@@OlaJustin "if I wanted a portable machine for work/media and video editing on the go today". If that was your use case, you would probably already be a Mac user. That's my point. At Mac things (video and audio), it's revolutionary. I would love to own one, but I need Visual Studio to run on my computer. I also use the GTX 2070 and 144hz screen in my current laptop to play games. If neither of those things were what I wanted in a laptop, I would own a Mac (again).
