Two iPad Pros (iPads Pro?) – The 11” is being used as a sawblade to slice the 12.9” in half?
Apple has crammed some amazing technology into the svelte frame of the 11” M1 iPad Pro. At almost exactly 1 lb in weight, it is also almost exactly as powerful as the newest 24” iMac. It uses exactly the same processor, seemingly at a very similar clock speed ( Apple stays silent on clock speeds, but all of the M1 devices so far benchmark very similarly). M1 computers, including the iPad, are also right around the performance of a 16” MacBook Pro, a high-end 21” Intel iMac or a low-end 27” Intel iMac. Let that sink in for a moment - this is a 1 lb device that performs like a midrange personal computer.
This Apple press image is actually from the release of some M1 Macs, but it’s equally relevant here. It’s the same chip, after all… A 1 lb tablet with a real computer’s brains…
The M1 is also ridiculously power-efficient. It is running at a similar speed for many tasks to a 45 watt Intel proc...

Dan Wells, "Shuttterbug" on the trail, is a landscape photographer, long-distance hiker and student in the Master of Divinity program at Harvard Divinity School. He lives in Cambridge, MA when not in wild places photographing and contemplating our connection to the natural world. Dan's images try to capture the spirit he finds in places where, in the worlds of the Wilderness Act of 1964, "Man himself is but a visitor". He has hiked 230 miles of Vermont's Long Trail and 450 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail with his cameras, as well as photographing in numerous National Parks, Seashores and Forests over the years - often in the offseason when few people think to be there. In the summer of 2020, Dan plans to hike a stretch of hundreds of miles on the Pacific Crest Trail, focusing on his own and others' spiritual connection to these special places, and making images that document these connections.
Over years of personal work and teaching photography, Dan has used a variety of equipment (presently Nikon Z7 and Fujifilm APS-C). He is looking for the perfect combination of light weight, ruggedness and superb image quality.
