A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

My wife is a beginner photographer and needs a new laptop for her needs. What it would be the best laptop computer to suit photo editing for beginners?

What’s your budget? Is she interested in video work too?

I’d say on the low end go macbook air m2 the little one but with at least 512gb storage and if she plans to work on video too macbook pro m1 pro with 1tb ssd, 16gb ram … both are less than $1500 if you look well enough for deals.

Just don’t go windows UNLESS she hates macs, for the price, macs last many more years for professional photo work, also less bugs in adobe software.
