Hello,
Would the Intel Iris in the newest 13" macbooks be able acceptable for primarily photo editing?
Between a 21" iMac and a 13" Macbook Pro, I really would prefer the graphics card from the iMAC's, but I do so much traveling that a Macbook seems to be my best option. I do not want to spend the extra whooping amount of money on the 15".
The only graphics card available in the 13" is the Intel Iris Graphics. I do a lot of amateur photo shooting and editing from my DSLR cameras, I use photoshop & lightroom on my current computer. I also plan on creating some slide shows. I will not do much video editing. I do not play any games either.
I plan on having the 2.8GHZ i5 processor and 16GB RAM in this laptop.
Any Thoughts?
Philip
