2019 MacBook Pro 16-inch

This test is a real-world task relevant to Adobe Photoshop: batch convert raw files to JPEG. Disk I/O is not a significant factor for any of these machines.

Results: Raw file conversion to JPEG — Hasselblad X1D 3FR raw

Sony uncompressed raw files are slightly faster to deal with because no decompression is needed, although Sony’s lossy-compressed format is very fast to decompress and takes half the time for I/O. This test uses a mix that uses 80% compressed raw and 20% uncompressed raw.

See the in-depth reviews of medium format cameras in diglloyd Medium Format.

The 2019 MacBook Pro just edges out the 2019 iMac 5K, the difference being within the margin of error. Which is rather impresssive for a laptop.
