okay so Fredrik you're a pro photographer you are in theory the perfect market for the MacBook Pro 13 inch with Retina display so what I want you to do is take this and use it as your ideally your primary machine for a few weeks use this little GoPro right here to record your thoughts and then we're actually even gonna company you on a photo shoot yes to see what you think I'm excited can I tell you I'm excited about the computer but I'm really excited about this - nobody does that was a photographer target I want like Oh computer yeah well good luck with your two toys thank you all right cool I'm excited to play with this new 13-inch MacBook Pro that I have here thank you seen it and especially excited to play with it to compare it with this my existing or my own computer which is this 15-inch MacBook Pros the Retina display model so the first thing we do is I'm going to take this thing out of the box here is the box brand-new box here and there it is one hand open this one up so there's a 15-inch and it's baby brother the 13-inch just feel so much lighter no it's only a couple grams lighter but it just feels so much lighter I don't know I love the same size keyboard but I didn't feel like I can type faster on this one I don't know it's something about that small screen that just makes it feel like it's a little bit more intimate than the large screen like it feels like work versus not so much work my first impressions of it were first of all I loved it it's just light I love the weight of it the initial disappointment and surprises I guess were that this one had less hard disk space for my apps and media and then also the RAM so the RAM on this thing maxes out at 8 where I can I can go to 16 on the bum at 15 and now I'm going to download Lightroom because that's the software we're going to be using when I photograph the model turn to your right just a little bit here you go right there hold it you the part okay turn to the left just a little bit look off into the distance good just like that hold it beautiful she's very photogenic the big thing that I loved about the devices you know insights I'm just opening it up in that new toy feel was just being able to get my work done on it being able to use Lightroom in a usable manner with this device and being it'll do it anywhere you know words can't really describe how cool it is to be able to do your photography work and then pack pack up your computer and slip it in your camera bag and go you know coming from an 11 inch MacBook Air initially and then having a 15 inch the 13 inch fits right in the middle it's the Goldilocks computer for photographers and I say that because of it gives you some of the power of the 15 inch and some of the weight savings of the 11 inch it's right in the middle it's great if I was going to make a recommendation to photographers I'd say get it if you care at all about weight
