In this video, we’re testing lightroom on the new M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Photographers need speed in Lightroom. We’re testing editing usability while editing photos, using masks, importing, exporting, building previews, and more. We’re really trying to stress this new M1 Pro MacBook by maxing out the ram and trying to edit in lightroom. Do you need the M1 Max, or is the M1 Pro more than enough? Apple has outdone themselves.
