It’s not the software or the hardware, but their friendship that makes this truly wild.
Your typical tech review is about one thing. It’s about a new piece of hardware and what you can do with it that you couldn’t before or it’s about a new release of software and how it’ll make crafting your images easier and faster.
This is what makes this particular article a bit of an anomaly; it’s really about DaVinci Resolve on iPad, which isn’t just about the software release but about how the software and hardware work together. And it’s less about what that means for right now but about what this means going forward.
Some Backstory
Some backstory is needed to understand why this is all so wild. It was a big deal when color grading first came to small shops and indies because it was a wildly intensive task.
Editing small video files on a computer was available to most people by the late 1990s. Ten years later, when color grading came along, the processing power needed to complete these tasks wasn’t available for the consumer. Even Apple Color demanded a lot of graphics power.
