Since this new model weighs 20oz less, focuses a foot closer, costs $1k less and goes to f/32, it has my attention. Here’s the news..

“Last week was peak!” has flooded my email box and social posts. And while a hillside of red would be spectacular, I’m really strange, I like these small snipits of color with a hint of winter on the way. I guess I like the subtle moody nature of these forest over the showy, flashy, obvious signs it’s fall. The wet trunks, the detail in the moss and lichens all in shades of gray with the dash of color…I could shoot those all day long!

Well, coming up on my 2nd month with the MacBook Pro Retina and I can honestly say, it is a screamer! Yesterday, other, older MacBook users were in awe as at the speed my Retina had in the digital darkroom. I’ve been on the road now for over a month and have added 1.7TB of images to my library. To be perfectly honest with you, while I might have been able to do the same thing with my Windows machine, I wouldn’t have had slept for the last month! The speed is a life saver! Having the Buffalo 1TB Thunderbird has made all the difference is having the “smaller” Retina. Now when it comes to making presentations, the Retina isn’t as clean as the regular MacBook Pro. Still having issues with running a projector. What I’m running is below..mtc
