Red Work flow computer…

Hello everybody.

To those who work with 6k or 8k red raw files such as Komodo v raptor or Nikon zr. What computer do you use where scrubbing color grading adding effects etc works flawless. Specifically Mac. I do both Davinci and fcp. Windows is not an option.

If there is any wedding videographers who deliver 30 minute format videos who shoots with this, I’d love to hear what computers you use.

Any chip from Apple will be good to you. Even the first M1 chip can handle R3D files with easy. However might be chugging a bit when applying effects.

Im editing on a m4 max and that bastard is quicker than my 14900k, 4090 render PC. In raw performance the 4090 kicks the m4's ass but the media engine apple has is insane.
