[QUOTE="Plexberry, post: 1813071, member: 284918"] Hi I need to buy a new MacBookPro for editing on the go (have a lovely iMac as main edit system). While I edit with 4k, the footage is from a GH5 and is 100mbps or less I have a tight budget (post Christmas!!) so can't get the 'obvious' MBP I need. I'm looking at a refurbished Mac. Wanting to spend around £2k. So would the below work: Originally released July 2018 MacBook Pro 2.6GHz 6-core Intel Core i7 Touch Bar with integrated Touch ID sensor 15.4-inch 16GB of 2400MHz DDR4 onboard memory 512GB SSD 1 Radeon Pro Graphics 560X I know it's not the best, but I've a decent iMac indoors etc, this is just for out and about, 2nd computer when needed etc. I'd edit off internal SSD or USB/TB drive if needed... Thank you in advance... [/QUOTE]
