Just need FCP or Resolve on iPad as well and I can seriously consider using a tablet as a main computer:)
 
With the amount of RAM in iPads and now having the same processor as a Mac, I’d love to see more iPad-only solutions. I often do a lot of my basic edits on the iPad in Photos, but even that is more limited than what I can do on the Mac.
 
I think one of the more interesting things of iPadOS lately (or whatever it's called) is they make more of the RAM actually accessible so that allows developers (Capture One, Adobe or even Apple itself) a lot of leeway in developing applications for the platform. Good times! :)
 
I’m really eager to know how it deals with the storage situation! Can we create sessions and can the photos for those sessions exist and be edited in place from an external drive! If so then this is would just be so very very cool.
 
i can understand going through and removing duds but what’s the point of doing any type of tonal or color edit on an uncalibrated tablet in less than optimal lighting environments?

Luckily for you it’s not a prerequisite and you can just ignore this release.

When the overwhelming majority of users, including hobby photographers, don't calibrate their displays, this is a problem confined to a very small group. For that group, there's some who believe the iPad displays are already very close to color accuracy. Others employ some form of calibration app that runs on iPadOS. Most I suspect do some form of what I do: all of the culling, renaming and most of the editing is performed on the iPad. Publication to web is done on the iPad. Closing out the job, keywording and edits on a small group of “keepers” is done on the Mac. Not every image I capture is art that needs a computer for editing. Then there's others, probably a sizable majority, who prefer to do everything on a computer, that's still an option.

The point is people know their needs and wants. For those that do extensive post processing on every image they capture, computers are the current gold standard. For those who remain closer to what the camera captured, the ipad is a viable option.
