London Aerial Photographer Says New Macbook Pro Lets Him Finish The Edit Before The Helicopter Lands

London-based aerial photographer Jason Hawkes was given early access to a maxed-out 2018 MacBook Pro, and was impressed …

Hawkes, who spends his time leaning out of helicopters shooting both stills and video footage, tweeted how much he liked using the new machine.

The accompanying photo shows a shot of Tower Bridge edited in Lightroom.

The top-spec machine has a 6-core Intel i9 processor running at 2.9GHz (with 4.8GHz Turbo mode), 32GB RAM and 4TB of 3.2GB/s PCIe SSD storage.

Of course, following his example won’t be cheap: that maxed-out machine will cost you $6,699.
