I've noticed that many photographers are switching to use iPad Pros (or even regular iPads) as their main computers.
With shoots that happen on location, mobility becomes important and the ability to show clients a quick preview of the shoot right after it happens makes mobile devices ideal for many photography usecases.
Now Adobe has launched a preview of the 'full' Photoshop and Lightroom CC on the iPad Pro (https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/15/17969754/adobe-photoshop-apple-ipad-creative-cloud https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/15/17969754/adobe-photoshop...) and this makes the entire workflow very smooth.
Even as a 'prosumer' photographer, I've started using my iPad to download and do quick ratings and edits on a flight back from a shoot rather than waiting for days till I get back to my desktop or carrying a heavy Macbook/Air around to a location. The real killer here was Adobe's ability to store raw images in the cloud and sync edits made on different clients.
- bigdubs 8y agoMy macbook pro is not much extra size / weight above an iPad, and my workflow (lightroom for canon, capture one for fuji) is hard to recreate on iOS anyway. The uses for the iPad on shoots I totally get is if you're Mike Kelley and you need to check that flash fills could be composed into a final image for architecture stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0WKNYObucY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0WKNYObucY
