Which iPad Pro is best for photographers? These are just a few of the apps coming out on iPad Pro and I always look forward to seeing how developers leverage the extremely capable hardware of iPad Pro to solve problems for the creative pro. Artemis Pro is a powerful digital viewfinder used by film directors around the world to line up and visualize shots (this app won an Emmy in 2018). Hasselblad’s Phocus Mobile 2 app allows you to use your iPad Pro as a remote display when tethered to your Hasselblad and it works quite well (I’d love to see something similar to this from Sony). Halide, my favorite third-party iPhone camera app, recently released an update with support for iPad Pro, including Halide’s Smart RAW and a thoughtfully designed viewfinder for large screens called Pro View.
(I use Lightroom and Photoshop the most, but there are many more.) Of course, Adobe Creative Cloud includes a bunch of tools for iPad Pro. I’m excited to see how the digital workflow continues to improve in coming years.Īs the hardware in iPad Pro has continued to become increasingly powerful, developers have ramped up software for the platform. The good news is that over the last few years, so many previous wishes have become reality thanks to teams at Apple and Adobe listening to the creative community and finding ways to implement (and sometimes improve) ideas. I’d also really love the ability to stitch panoramas together in Lightroom CC - something I do often while in the field to make sure I have the shot. Even with my super fast ProGrade USB-C SD card reader, it takes a few minutes to import a 128 GB SD card and I’m not able to jump into other apps during the import. I’d love to be able to import photos into Lightroom CC in the background. However, when connecting the dual slot SD card reader from ProGrade, I was able to load two SD cards simultaneously. I tried to do this with a USB-C splitter from Belkin, but it didn’t work. This way I could mimic my traditional digital workflow and data redundancy strategy (which is critical as a traveling photographer). I’d also love to be able to connect two external storage devices simultaneously.
It would speed up and simplify the image review process substantially to have it built in. Nine out of ten times I’m plugging in a device, it’s a reader for an SD card. I’d love to see an SD/CFexpress reader built into the iPad Pro (and the MacBook Pro, for that matter). While the iPad Pro platform is uniquely powerful, I still have a few wishes, some that are nuanced to me and my specific workflow.
