Hey
My nami is Julian, and I'm cinematography student at Polish Filmschool in Łódź
My old mid2010 mbp15 just totally died, and now it's time to spend some money for a new machine...
but right now my budget is really limited, and I'm looking for the lowest possible configuration that I can afford
I was considering building hackintosh but I need something that I can take with me on the set sometimes
Besides normal day activity I would use it for offline editing, backup of material and occasionally for limited grading in resolve.
and the last point is the most decisive...
We have at school really powerful workstation with resolve 10 and Dolby monitor so I don't quite really need the strongest machine rather something that will run Resolve even in the lowest setup. My old mbp was unable to work with 10, so right now I'm thinking about two options:
13' rMBP 2.4GHz i5 4GB RAM, 128gb flash
Or
13 MB AIR 1.3GHz i5, 8GB RAM, 128gb flash
What do you think? I came throu a lot of materials about configs and now I feel a little dizzy... Some say that air will not handle Resolve, and then I find on web that someone actually is using it of course with a lot expansions but maybe as I wrote earlier the lowest possible config will work...
Or maybe I should consider something else? The only thing is that I need to buy the new, cheapest possible on apple store because of the financing option
Thanks for any advice, and have great week guys
