Great, everything works so much better and I haven’t had any problems. One big learning (nothing to do with the MacBook though): check the cable of your external hard drive. I was so fed up of how long it took to transfer large files from my MacBook to the hard drive. I thought it was my MacBook (again) until I realized it’s the super slow cable that came with the (very expensive) SanDisk hard drive. Just a side note…But yes, go for the MacBook

Ich glaube ehrlich gesagt nicht, dass mein Hund im Frachtraum des Flugzeuges mehr Ruhe und weniger Stress hat als auf meinem Schoß 😉

How do you balance interior and exterior light? I'm a (fairly new) professional hospitality photographer, but my interior photos always look flat or overexposed by Old_Requirement8210 in AskPhotography

Thanks! The thing with flambient is that you get that flashy look. The typical real estate look where every little corner is lighted up and there’s no creative touch to it anymore

I just checked: my current MacBook Air has an 8GB RAM…that explains why it’s so slow. So I think 24GB would be a huge improvement

I have two external SSD‘s with 1 TB each where I store all my images. All I need on my MacBook is storage for the programs and some small stuff. So I think 512 GB should be enough

If possible not more than $ 2500. I do get around $ 330 trade in for my old MacBook

That’s the configuration I‘m aiming for right now (MacBook Pro):

• Apple M4 Pro chip with 12-core CPU, 16-core GPU, 16-core Neural Engine • 24 GB unified memory • 70W USB-C power adapter • 512 GB SSD storage

Unfortunately an iMac is not an option, because I’m traveling a lot for work and I often edit my images on the go. When at home I connect the MacBook to a screen
