- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Hi,
I currently use my old laptop HP Pavilion DV8 for editing my photos in Photoshop / Lightroom. With increased size of photographs my laptop looks tired and very slow in responses. I am thing of buying a new laptop for primary use of Photoshop and Lightroom (sometimes Pinnacle Studio for video editing - very basic) and no gaming or anything else.
I was inclined to go for Macbook Pro and found it very expensive, although I can stretch for basic configuration of 15", 2.3GHz8-core 9th-generation Intel Core i9 processor, Turbo Boost up to 4.8GHz (??), Radeon Pro 560X with 4GB of GDDR5 memory, 16GB 2400MHz DDR4 memory, 512GB SSD storage for USD 3300. I guess I will not go for upgrades in memory or other things as this configuration would be good for my requirement.
I am sure all photographers would be attached with laptops for their work so needed some recommendation about which one to go for.
Any suggestions or alternatives?
Lastly, a basic question - so far I have created several LR albums on my windows. Will I be able to open them on my Mac also?
Thanks,
Ketan
