    4k video editing desktop / laptop?

    Hi guys, I've been doing some video editing and looking to get into it a lot more. I've had a play with premiere pro and really like it. Problem is my PC is about 5 yrs old and too slow to handle anything above 1080p. Now I'm going to be shooting in 4k (Panasonic lx100) and wanted to build a...

    advice on purchasing a used macbook pro..

    thanks for the quick response.. yes, its tempting to get the MBP. I had a quick play with lightroom on it and it seemed nice and fast.

    A question for laptop users with Lightroom...

    hi guys, Just interested to find out what laptops (make / model) people are using to run Lightroom (non Apple laptops) and how accurate they find the colour reproduction. Did it need much tweaking? The reason I ask. I'm after a new laptop and wondering if I can get away with a slightly cheaper...

    New laptop for Lightroom

    Hi guys, I'm after a new laptop for Lightroom editing. I've been using an asus N73s for the last 4.5 yrs and it's been great. Only problem Has been the screen colour which is too cool so I have to compensate for this which is annoying. I'm not keen on macs at all. I've read mixed reviews on...
