Which Is Better for Digital Photography: Mac or PC? Jon Sienkiewicz Jun 4, 2015. You can DIY a PC from readily available components and create an awesome photo editing machine. Save money and install only the best parts and accessories. Beef up the RAM to the OS limit and install ginormous hard drives. In the past, it was easy to pick a Mac or PC based on the type of software you needed. Business productivity tools were domain of the Windows operating system, while editing, photo and other creativity apps were clearly a Mac world.

Another reason I was turned off to Macs is that it was so stinking closed. “Do it my way or the highway” is the mentality of Apple. For the first time now, I had to do some work on a Macbook, and because I already am familiar with Unix-based environments, it was very easy to pick up and learn. I still jump into the terminal (*gasp*) because I am able to manipulate the system much quicker that way. Any hiring manager or anyone for that matter who prejudices one system over another is clearly ignorant and projecting their own fears and doubts onto someone else. Anonymous: You probably “don’t understand any of these concerns” (as you said) because you’re a software developer, not a graphic designer.

At the end of the day, a better resolution and better computing power are what photo editors (and photographers) look for. You also get touchscreen functionality on the laptop screen. Free noise reduction software. That way even without a Wacom board you can do some basic editing. Play However, don’t pin too much hope on the editing prowess of a touchscreen and your fingers. Plus, touchscreens of laptops are susceptible to dust, dirt and fingerprint smudges. They are not your usual smartphone screen that can be easily wiped clean. It is more time consuming to clean laptop screens.

This particular model from ASUS isn’t exactly perfect for easy upgrade and maintenance. There are an awful number of screws that you have to unscrew before you can get access to the memory and the hard drive units. That said, if you don’t want to take the laptop apart, the built-in configuration is good enough for most photo editing needs. The display on the laptop is a large 17.3″ real estate with a resolution of full HD. We would have liked a higher resolution (at least UHD – 3840 x 2160) display as that would have justified the larger than standard display size. As a gaming laptop, it is likely that the machine will have a few features which are catered towards hardcore gamers.

If you’re strictly doing Photoshop editing, the processor speed and memory are key; for video editing, choose the best GPU you can afford. Laptops Given the new boom in lightweight, powerful laptops, they might be your best bet rather than a desktop PC. You can thank gamers for this trend, because a lot of the models are aimed them, but they work just great for photo and video editing too. As a graphics pro, however, you might have slightly different needs, especially around the display. I’ve already talked about the best high-end for your budget. That said, if you don’t need the portability offered by those, there’s no reason you can’t go for a regular, heavier and more powerful (and often more expensive) laptop like the 17-inch. Other more-business-oriented laptops might serve you better, especially if you have a need for NVIDIA’s professional Quadro graphics.

That is why their prices have dropped so dramatically. So I’m late to the party but need some advice if anyone is out there! Someone cracked the screen my glorious (albeit not well equipped) PC all-in-one so I’m back to the debate between PC and Mac. I do very, very light coding for our ecommerce as well as layout our large catalogs with InDesign and edit high res images for large scale graphics printing. So mostly I want something that can keep up with running those programs (with thousands of images in my catalog files) and a lovely glossy screen that presents the files the way the final print will actually look.

Even though I am a PC person ( sticking with xp as long as I can) mac's are good but I am not about to cross over ( I have a drive set up with windows 7 in a slide in holder so I am ready for eventual end of xp support. Considering that you're already have CS6 for the PC, you might want to stick that way. My workstation at work is a Dell Precision desktop Xeon 3.3Ghz with 12 gigs of ram running Win7. Pretty good machine.

Some computing tasks mobile devices like laptops and tablets can't fulfill as well as the stalwart desktop. Desktop-class CPUs and graphics processors are simply more powerful than their mobile counterparts for the same money. They give you the grunt to finish whatever task you're working on in less time.
